However, he can also understand why Shuai Shuai Ya doesn't use his real name. This is the same as Shangguan Hami Melon. After all, compared to such a strange name as Ma La Tang, Shuai Shuai Ya is undoubtedly much better-sounding.
After taking another sip of tea and chatting with the old man for a few words, Lin Xiaolu, who had a rather impatient temper, couldn't hold himself back. He was not here to chat, so he asked straight to the point:
"Sir, handsome duck, oh no, Ma Latang said that you had some insights after reading the Book of Changes, so he called me over, you~"
Kong Zhongni saw that he was finally getting anxious, so he smiled freely: "I Ching?"
Lin Xiaolu nodded expectantly.
"Absolutely clueless."
Lin Xiaolu:……(。ì _ í。)
Seeing that the young man was confused, the young Kong Zhongni laughed out loud again, laughing like an old naughty boy:
"Just kidding young man, you should also appreciate the old sense of humor, right?"
Lin Xiaolu took a deep breath, then nodded with a flushed head.
Appreciate it, I really appreciate it.
In front of him, Kong Zhongni smiled with a red face for a while, then he put away his smile and said seriously:
"I have really spent a lot of time studying these days. I heard Xiao Ma say that this I Ching... was passed down to my little friend by Taoist Sanfeng?"
Lin Xiaolu nodded:
"Sir, in the world of Sleeping Immortal of the Hidden Dragon Sleeping Pill Technique, Senior Sanfeng told me that the I Ching was passed down by Patriarch Chen Tuan to Master Huolong, who then passed it on to Senior Sanfeng."
Hearing this, Kong Zhongni took a sip of tea and then preached unhurriedly:
"Taoist Sanfeng, Huolong, and Chen Tuan, they were all figures in the third heaven in those days, and they are all great people."
Lin Xiaolu was stunned: "Third Heaven Realm?"
Kong Zhongni nodded:
"The Third Heaven Realm is a very special world among the three thousand worlds. In that world, the monopoly of immortal cultivators was almost broken by martial arts."
As soon as he said this, Lin Xiaolu stood up from the wooden pier with a "Wow!" and looked at Kong Zhongni with a shocked face.
It turns out that there really was a powerful senior who almost broke the monopoly of cultivating immortals. I had thought before that there was no reason why peerless martial arts masters like Zhang Sanfeng, Bodhidharma, Huolong, and Chen Tuan could not be as good as those who cultivated immortals, even if they were not as good as Nascent Soul. , it’s okay to compare pill formation, it turns out these seniors have really tried it.
Across the wooden table, Kong Zhongni smiled, motioned for him to sit down first, gave him a refill of tea, and then continued:
"In terms of the meaning of the Book of Changes, I have completely understood it. It does possess great wisdom as high as a mountain, but there are many points in it that are indeed dead to martial arts and are not feasible."
Kong Zhongni looked at Lin Xiaolu and said:
"I don't know who the original author of the I Ching is, but from the current perspective, it is really unrealistic for Xiaoyou Lin to practice it as a martial art."
Hearing this, Lin Xiaolu's eyes darkened completely.
In his opinion, the Mr. Zhongni in front of him should be the wisest and most knowledgeable person in the entire world of immortality. If even he said that the Yi Jing cannot be practiced, then there is really nothing he can do.
Who else could I turn to? Looking for glutinous rice balls? I don't want to go crazy or have my anus gushing blood.
The young man's heart was in a mess. He seemed to see that he had stopped at the old awesome state in his life. Although the old awesome state was quite powerful, he was still a little unwilling to do so, so he had to sigh helplessly.
But just when he was about to stand up and say goodbye, Kong Zhongni suddenly smiled mysteriously:
"Little friend Lin...although I cannot practice the Yi Jing, but...little friend Lin can rely on enlightenment."
Lin Xiaolu:? ? ?
He was stunned for a moment, then blurted out: "How to realize it?"
"How do you want to realize it, little friend Lin?" Kong Zhongni asked happily while drinking tea.
Lin Xiaolu thought for a while, then hesitantly said: "I want to... enlightenment while shitting?"
"puff!"
Kong Zhongni broke through the defense on the spot, and the hot tea spurted out. The handsome duck beside him couldn't help laughing, covering his stomach with his wings and laughing.
Kong Zhongni lost control and lost his composure. He blew his beard and stared at Lin Xiaolu:
"Okay, you are worthy of being the apprentice of that bastard Li Mingru. You two masters and apprentices are really virtuous. One is peeing a little bit higher, and the other is enlightening while shitting. It's really that both big and small come to choke this old scholar, grandma is a bear , It’s really annoying.”
Seeing that Mr. Zhong Ni was angry, Lin Xiaolu scratched his head in embarrassment:
"I'm sorry, sir, I'm used to being mean, but my boss and I have this unique sense of humor that he probably likes, right?"
Kong Zhongni rolled his eyes when he heard this.
I like it, I like it so much that I almost lost my image as a scholar.
However, as an elder, he still sat down patiently and patiently explained to the young man in front of him:
"The so-called enlightenment has existed since ancient times, and Xiaoyou Lin wants to understand the Tao of the Yi Jing from the Yi Jing and find out what he knows about the Yi Jing. What Lao Chen and Xiao Ma tell you are all our understanding of the Yi Jing. This does not represent your own understanding, little friend. You have to understand it yourself.
For example, for a book, some people like to read it, some people don't like it, some people can see the truth, and some people can't. The same is true for the Tao. Some people can understand the Tao of flowers, birds, fish, and insects, and some can understand the Tao. People can't understand it, so they can only understand it through plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums. Some people can understand it through pens, inks, paper and inkstones. Some people can't understand it, so they can only understand it through pots, bowls and pans.
Therefore, everyone’s understanding of the same thing is not the same, because everyone is unique and unique. "
At the table, Kong Zhongni looked at Lin Xiaolu and said seriously:
“Martial arts can be practiced.
Spiritual methods can be practiced through cultivation.
Knowledge can be learned.
As for Tao, you can only understand it yourself!
Xiaoyou Lin...do you understand? "
Looking at Mr. Kong Zhongni's kind and wise eyes, Lin Xiaolu's breath stopped for a moment, and then he shook his head decisively.
It's really not his fault. Enlightenment is still a bit too deep for a seventeen-year-old boy like him.
He doesn’t read as many Buddhist scriptures as Wu Gu, he doesn’t read as much Confucianism as Shuai Shuai Ya, he doesn’t read as much Taoism as Master Miaoxin, and even the study of Xiao Huangshu is far inferior to that of the boss and Uncle Shangguan. What can he know?
As for him like this, Kong Zhongni felt helpless. After sighing, he could only ask in vernacular:
"Little friend Lin, do you know what your master Li Mingru, that bastard, realized back then?"
Lin Xiaolu shook his head: "Students don't know."
Seeing the young man calling himself a student, the tenderness in Kong Zhongni's eyes grew a little thicker, and he smiled kindly and said: "The way your master has understood is freedom.
Come on, I'll ask you again, do you know what freedom looks like? "
Lin Xiaolu was stunned, looking comfortable? Isn’t freedom a word for peace of mind? How could this look like this?
Seeing that he was confused, Kong Zhongni spread his hands towards him and said with a smile:
"Look, you don't know if it's right or not, because Xiaoyou Lin has never realized it personally, so naturally he doesn't know what freedom looks like."
Deep in the picturesque Taoyuan, Kong Zhongni sat in the small fenced courtyard and said with a smile:
"Li Mingru's lifelong pursuit is freedom, freedom, and freedom. In the end, he saw freedom itself. Although this is an abstract concept, he realized it, so he also saw it.
Hearing Tao in the morning and dying in the evening tells us the charm of Tao. Everything in the world has Tao, and Tao is different! At that time, Senior Li Er had never practiced cultivation, but he was able to realize the Tao in one day, and finally became the only one in the world, stepping through the void. This! This is the charm of Tao!
The three chapters of Zhouyi, Guizang and Lianshan in the Book of Changes respectively correspond to the past, future and Qi of all things.
Xiao Ma asked Lin Xiaoyou to try to feel Qi and control Qi. This was its understanding of Guizang. It cannot be said that its understanding was wrong, but it was biased. After all, this was only its opinion, not Lin Xiaoyou's own.
Since you can’t practice the I Ching, then learn it!
And how can enlightenment be the same as practicing?
Mystery is mysterious, and it is the door to all mysteries. Although mystery is profound, the Tao is also simple. Dao is first followed by the mysterious, and then the mysterious becomes the Tao.
Therefore, I believe that Xiaoyou Lin should study the I Ching by himself, first fully understand its meaning, and then travel, feel, see, and understand.
The I Ching describes the past, future, and Qi of all things.
Then Xiaoyou Lin will travel to the outside world to see the past, future, and energy of all things, feel them by himself, and understand them by himself.
When Xiaoyou Lin realizes the past, the future, and Qi, then Xiaoyou Lin will also realize all the mysteries of the I Ching~"
