Mu Si's Buddhist talisman is very strange.
In the eyes of Zen Masters Wu Laoba and Song Guo, the Buddhist talisman was just an ordinary pine, and there was no female doll under the pine. Among everyone, the only one who could see the female doll was Ning Fan!
"Can you see April?" Mu Si's expression was originally very cold, but when he noticed Ning Fan's solemn gaze looking at the Buddhist talisman, there was a look of surprise in his eyes.
"April? Does it mean the little girl in the Buddhist talisman?" Ning Fan nodded.
"Yes, April is her nickname. I watched her grow up. At that time, I planted a pine tree clone on a cultivation star billions of stars away from Mu Island. I wanted to use it as a clone. Therefore, the Palm of Perception Wood... I obviously planted my clone in the deep mountains, but this little girl, among thousands of pine trees, noticed my presence at a glance..."
Mu Si seemed to have started talking, and with the help of his magical power, the scenes from that year were displayed in Ning Fan's mind like a picture.
The first scene is a scene of Taoist Mu Song preaching to Mu Si.
Initially, Mu Si was not called Mu Si, but Mu Yi. He was the tree spirit with the highest cultivation level among the Seven Pines.
The sequence of the Seven Pines is divided according to their cultivation level. Mu Si has the highest cultivation level and was once valued by Mu Song Taoist.
On that day, Taoist Mu Song ended his one hundred thousand years of seclusion and came out.
The first thing he did was to erect the second and third stone monuments on the wooden island - these two monuments to hide from the world turned out to be erected at the same time.
The second thing he did was to find Mu Si and share with Mu Si what he had learned during this retreat.
"It has been twelve million years since I closed my eyes and broke through to the second-level quasi-sage. The little guy Senluo has also been imprisoned in the heavenly prison for eleven million years. That kid once said, if I If you can complete the three monuments and fully integrate the path of life, you can further improve your cultivation. Now. I finally established the second and third, but found that I am still far away from the third-level quasi-sage. Ha, Three stone monuments. It turns out that’s not enough. It’s just the fourth monument that comes next, but I don’t know how to erect it..."
"Senior Brother (Mu Si was still Mu Yi at the time), during this retreat, I reached a whole new realm. I closed my eyes, but finally it was as if I had opened them, and I saw the reality of the dream world clearly. In fact, as early as a thousand years ago, Two million years ago, I was able to get a glimpse of the reality of the world, but it was only now that I could achieve this perfectly... The real dream world is even more desolate and lonely than I imagined... There is a saying in Buddhism, All forms in this world are empty. Now, I understand a little bit of its true meaning..."
"The method of Palm Position is hard to find in the world. Most people in the world only know that to become a Palm Position Immortal Emperor, you need to use the power of Palm Position Dao Fruit... Therefore, there are many old monsters who want to grow Palm Position Dao Fruit, but few people know about it. , the correct way to become a master emperor is to open your eyes and be in the real world. Create your own master void..."
"It's just that it's not easy to open your eyes and see the real world? Within four days, plus ten secret tribes. There are no more than twenty people who can do this kind of thing... In the land of Dongtian, the secret tribes In addition, in the past 100 million years, there have been only three Immortal Emperors besides me. Among them, Taisu Thunder Emperor has been dead for many years, so I won’t mention it. The remaining two, one is the current Killing Emperor of the Killing Palace, One is the old man Houtu of Houtu Sect... But as far as I know, these two people do not hold the position by opening their eyes... The reason why they hold the position is by the power of the Tao Fruit of the Holding Position, so , but fell behind..."
"The method of opening eyes is a top secret in the world. My Cangsong disciple has pretty good qualifications. He has gradually gained the title of Qing Emperor in the Eastern Sky. But unfortunately... he doesn't have enough qualifications to open his eyes. I don't know this." The thing... Xiang Jianzi once had the qualifications to open his eyes, but he gave up his eyes for the Senluo kid. After all, he never had the chance to touch the wonderful state of opening his eyes... His Senluo disciple's qualifications even surpassed Xiang's. The old man once opened his eyes in my golden sky and black map! This son's qualifications are the best I have ever seen in my life! Unfortunately, this son lost the chance to become an emperor because of a woman, and he will always be an immortal king. Now he is still Imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison of Shenxu Pavilion. In this case, let alone becoming the Immortal Emperor..."
"What I say next may sound a bit unpleasant, but there is no malice. I hope that Senior Brother Haihan can handle it. With Senior Brother's qualifications, most likely he will not be able to open his eyes. If he wants to be in charge, I am afraid he will have to find another way. I am in retreat this time. , from that real world, I realized the second method of palm positioning... You, are willing to learn it!"
"The normal path to palm position requires too high level of understanding, and opening the eyes is too difficult... The path to palm position is a second-rate method... The method I learned this time is the same as the method of opening eyes, but it is simple. Many, I named it the method of ruthlessness. The ruthlessness of the great road is not about being unmoved, but about giving up step by step after seeing through all the obsessions. Brother, you might as well go to the secular world to experience it. If you can fully understand the wonderful meaning of the word ruthlessness, Reason, if you let your mind die, you will surely be able to understand something with your uniquely blessed body of grass and trees..."
…
Ning Fan's eyes narrowed slightly. From these pictures, he actually saw the scene of Taoist Mu Song preaching to Mu Si!
It is too difficult to become a true Immortal Emperor! He relied on the mystery of the chaos ring to destroy the twenty-seven yin and yang, and found a new way to use the power of the palm position, but he did not cultivate the void of the palm position, and it was not a real palm position.
From this scene, Ning Fan heard for the first time that the correct way to become the Palm Immortal Emperor was not to swallow the Palm Dao Fruit, but... to open his eyes!
What's the meaning?
Open your eyes...what does that mean?
What does the real world after opening your eyes mean?
At this moment, Ning Fan felt enlightened, as if this simple scene contained an unimaginable avenue, but he could not understand...
There was no time to think more, and the second scene appeared in Ning Fan's mind again.
The location is an old forest deep in the mountains. There are countless ancient pines in the forest, and the pine tree clones branching out from the four corners are just an insignificant tree among them.
His purpose is to quietly plant a clone here and spy on all the ordinary life on this cultivation planet, so as to understand the ruthless meaning in Mu Song's mouth...
He originally thought that he would live alone in the mountains for a long time, but he never thought that a little girl would easily walk into his life and disrupt his journey of enlightenment...
It was the second day after Mu Si came to this cultivation star. In a nearby mountain village, a group of adult hunters took their juniors to hunt deep in the mountains.
How cultivated is Mu Si? Even a true immortal might not be able to see through the reality of his pine tree clone.
The mortal hunter entering the mountain passed by him. Of course, there was no way to tell that this was a spiritual tree. Only a little girl wearing a red cloth jacket with braided braids could tell that Mu Si was extraordinary.
"Grandpa, look, look. This pine tree is peeking at me. Is it a monster? Why can it see me? It has no eyes." Seven-year-old April was very curious.
Since she was born, she has been able to see things that others cannot, everyone in the village said. This little girl is evil, so few people are willing to get close to this evil little girl...
"Hush! My little ancestor, please don't say such words again in the future. If you violate any immortal's taboo, be careful about your life!"
The elderly hunter who was called Grandpa turned pale with fright when he heard that Little April was talking such nonsense again. He hurriedly bowed to Mu Si's body and kept muttering "Gods and Buddhas bless you". "Don't be surprised." It's strange, but he dragged Xiao Yiyue away and ran away...
Others also bowed to the pine tree. Then he ran away as if he were running away, with a look of fear and fear, and he didn't dare to hunt around Mu Si anymore...
It seems that everyone believed Xiao Yiyue's words and regarded Mu Si as a tree demon, thus avoiding...
This left Mu Si speechless. His original intention was to attain enlightenment in a low-key manner in the deep mountains and forests, without contact with anyone, but he never thought about it. On the second day after arriving at this cultivation star, a group of mortals discovered Xing Zang...
Was his method of concealing his aura too clumsy?
Or...that little girl with braided braids has too poisonous eyes...
"A mere mortal can actually see things that even a true immortal can't see..." Mu Si sighed with emotion.
It even made him dumbfounded. On the third day, the little girl with braids ran into the mountains alone and came to him.
This seven-year-old mortal doll is not afraid of being eaten by tigers and wolves in the mountains! This is too courageous!
Oh, I see... This little girl has a cultivation instrument hanging around her neck. It can drive away tigers and wolves... No wonder she dared to go into the mountains alone...
The grade of the magic weapon is not high, it seems to be just something made by a junior on the first or second level of Pimai...
"Uncle Shu, are you looking at my amulet? Do you want my amulet? Do you think it is beautiful? Do you want it? But I can't give it to you. Grandpa said that I could see ghosts when I was a child, and it took me a whole I just asked the Taoist grandfather from Maoshan for this amulet for two taels of silver, but I can’t give it to you..."
Mu Si frowned slightly but did not answer. This little girl seems to be very wordy...
"My name is April, uncle Shu, what's your name? Are you silent because you can't speak, or because you don't have a name? I know you are a tree demon, you must be able to speak. If you don't answer, is it because you No name? Do you want me to give you a name? Grandpa praised me for being the best at naming. Grandma raised seven pigs and I gave each one a name. Do you want to listen..."
The corners of Mu Si's mouth twitched, but he still didn't answer. This little girl is indeed very wordy.
"Uncle Shu, if you don't like to talk, just listen and I'll tell you. Let's first talk about the big yellow dog raised by Brother Lin next door..."
The little girl talked about the big yellow dog for a quarter of an hour.
"...Let's talk about the big white goose in the village chief's father-in-law's house..."
Another quarter of an hour...
"...I ate half a cake yesterday morning and half a steamed bun at lunch..."
Another quarter of an hour...
"...I did it the day before yesterday..."
"...I was the day before yesterday..."
"…I…"
After all, Mu Si was a powerful old monster. Although he was tired of the little girl's verbosity, he listened from beginning to end without saying a word.
The little girl finally left very disappointed. She really wanted to talk to Uncle Shu. Everyone in the village is afraid of her, saying she is evil, and no one wants to talk to her. Even the grandparents avoid her and never let her serve at the table...
Is it possible that even Uncle Dryad is afraid of her? Otherwise, why ignore her...
"The grass and trees are merciless... The realm that Junior Brother Mu Song mentioned is this..."
After the little girl left, Mu Si began to ponder. He disdained a mortal doll. Is this also a kind of heartlessness...
Because he is a high-altitude immortal, looking at the humble mortals is like looking at insects.
How boring do people have to be to talk to ants and care about their life and death?
Of course he will not pay attention to Xiao Yiyue, just like he will not run to talk to the ants. Is this the true meaning of Dao Qingrui...
On the fourth day, Xiao Siyue ran to Mu Si again and started nagging.
The fifth day, the sixth day. The seventh day…
One month, two months, three months...
Except for rain and snow, Xiao April has to go into the mountains almost every day. Chat with Mu Si.
Although Mu Si never spoke to Xiao Yiyue, Xiao Yiyue still enjoyed it.
At least there is one person willing to listen to her, which is already rare, isn't it...
So spring goes and autumn comes. Listening to the little girl chatter gradually became Mu Si's daily habit.
Every time the little girl was bullied in the village, she would cry in front of him and never shed tears in front of outsiders.
Occasionally, a villager would say something to the little girl and talk to her, and she would be happy all day long and share her joy with Mu Si...
The little girl grew up day by day, became slim and graceful, and became sensible. No more talking nonsense in front of outsiders. As a result, the villagers gradually looked at him normally, and among his peers, there were also many young men of the right age who admired her appearance.
She was no longer lonely and no longer talkative. She finally grew up, but she still often came to the mountains to chat with her tree uncle.
Mu Si still ignored her, so the little ant had grown up. They are still ants. How can a person be so bored as to chat with an ant?
The little girl didn't mind Mu Si's neglect. She began to carefully build a fence around Mu Si. The reason is that I am afraid that animals will come to relieve themselves under the tree...
What a joke! How cultivated he is, Mu Si. If he doesn't want to, what beast without eyes would dare to poop and urinate under his tree!
On days when there is little rain, she will work hard to fetch mountain spring water and water the uncle trees...
Mu Si expressed helplessness, he was an immortal tree. I have been deprived of water and food for countless years, so I won’t die without water... That’s all, it’s just a sign of filial piety from this little girl, so I don’t blame her...
The little girl is greedy. Every time a young man gives her snacks, she will take them to the mountains and give half to Uncle Shu, while she only eats half.
Mu Si never ate these mortal snacks in front of the little girl, but after she left, he would sigh and put away these snacks...
Later, the little girl actually built a wooden house in the deep mountains, saying that she wanted to live next to Mu Si and stay together forever.
He also said that if Mu Song didn't dislike her, it would be fine to marry Mu Song. She also wants to be a tree. She doesn't like to live in the village wearing a mask, and prefers to be her true self in front of Mu Song.
"Uncle Shu, if I marry you, will you marry me or not? Why don't you say anything? Do you dislike me? Damn it, I'm ignoring you!"
Xiao Siyue didn't know that after listening to these words, Mu Song's heart, which had been practicing Buddhism for many years, actually felt a little rippled.
I wanted to practice the path of ruthlessness, but I never thought that this little girl would come into my life.
I don’t know since when, Mu Si no longer looked at this little girl like he looked at an ant...
It's not the love between men and women, but it can't be ignored...
During this period, Taoist Mu Song came once. Seeing this, he shook his head repeatedly.
"Among the Seven Pines, you have the best qualifications. In addition, you are from a grass and tree background. I thought you could easily understand the true meaning of the ruthless Dao, but unexpectedly, you will lose your state of mind because of a mortal doll... All living beings are illusions, you I still don’t understand...it doesn’t matter, my practice is increasing day by day, and if I pay some price, I can let you see the real world...Next, the world you see will be invisible to others!"
Taoist Mu Song raised his hand and lit a purple light, which penetrated into Mu Sison's body. Immediately, the scenery in front of Mu Si changed...
…
Ning Fan didn't know what kind of world Mu Si had seen from Taoist Mu Song.
But from then on, Mu Si returned to his former coldness and hardness, treating the little girl like air.
The sensitive little April noticed the change in Mu Si immediately.
In the past, although Mu Si ignored him, he would not ignore her. His eyes would always quietly stay on her body, and she could feel it.
But now, the way Mu Si looked at her was as cold and hard as looking at grass and rocks, which caught her off guard and made her panic.
"Uncle Shu, why are you ignoring me? Why are you not looking at me? Did I do something wrong?"
"...Uncle Shu, let me help you catch insects today, okay..."
The little girl was anxious. She talked a lot, but Mu Si didn't even look at her!
That look is not ignoring, but...not caring!
"...Uncle Shu, my grandpa and I had a fight. He said that when I grow up, he wants to force me to get married, but I don't want to... I want to live in the mountains for a while. Can you accompany me..."
Still ignored as coldly as the air.
From the time she was seven to now seventeen, she has never had a brief glance in the past ten years. Today, I moved away from her...
"Uncle Shu..."
"Uncle Shu..."
"Uncle Shu..."
It was night, Xiao Siyue lived in a wooden house in the mountains, and it was raining heavily in the mountains.
Once upon a time she had a quarrel with her grandfather. She would also go to live in a wooden house in the mountains. The nights in the mountains were very cold, but she didn't need thick clothes and quilts, because there was always Mu Si to silently dispel the cold for her. She knew...
But tonight. She was really cold, because Mu Si had changed, and he would never listen to her thoughts again, and he would never dispel the coldness of the mountain night for her...
She obviously did nothing wrong, why...Uncle Shu ignored her...
The next day, she had a high fever and her whole body was limp, but she still stubbornly stayed under the tree and chattered non-stop.
She knew that Mu Si didn't listen. But she wanted to say it, and she wanted him to listen!
Mu Si frowned. As an immortal cultivator, he certainly knew how fragile the human body was. A sick condition like that of a little girl would be very dangerous if not treated in time.
"Go back!" Mu Si almost had the urge to talk to the little girl for the first time, but he did not speak after all.
He thought of the world that Taoist Mu Song showed him, in that real world. There is no such person as Little April...
She never existed, it was just false; he must cut off all mundane thoughts, so that he could realize the ruthless road and possess the power of palm...
finally. No matter what the little girl said, Mu Si didn't even look at her.
On the third day, the little girl held on and still stubbornly refused to leave. However, she did not speak again and just sat silently under the tree. Touching the pine tree in a daze.
On the fourth day, she fainted, unable to hold on any longer, with tears hanging from the corners of her eyes...
In the end, Uncle Shu ignored her.
Uncle Shu, I really don’t want her anymore…
Mu Si knew that if he allowed the little girl to lie here until she died of illness, he would become a ruthless person, and he would surely be able to comprehend the path of ruthlessness diligently.
However, this is a painful choice. It requires a woman's life in exchange for the opportunity of enlightenment...
There are too many things like this in the world of cultivation. In order to understand the way of ruthlessness, how many old monsters will deliberately cultivate a cauldron, pour their deepest feelings into it, and then kill it after being with it day and night for countless years, so as to understand ruthlessness. True meaning…
Should she follow Taoist Mu Song's method and gain the power of the palm, or...save her...
…
The picture ends here and does not give a result.
However, this did not prevent Ning Fan from guessing.
Nowadays, Mu Si has the power of palm position in the Buddhist talisman. Does this mean that Mu Si chose not to save the little girl in exchange for the opportunity to cultivate the palm position...
Ning Fan frowned. He was not related to Little Siyue and did not care about his life or death. However, Mu Si's actions made him disagree.
If this is the ruthless way of grass and trees mentioned by Mu Si, he would rather not understand this way!
Ning Fan had no intention of continuing to gain insights in Fourth Pine, so he turned around and left.
"My little friend dislikes my Buddhist talisman enlightenment so much, is it because I look down on my practice?"
"There is no distinction between superiority and inferiority. I am not looking down on you, I just can't agree with you." Ning Fan paused and said calmly.
"You can't agree... Even though you can't agree, you can't change it. This is the reality of the world. Have you seen the world as it is? Do you know... that kind of loneliness...
That is a world that can only be seen by palm cultivators. What I saw from my junior brother was only a part of the world.
The junior brother said that the complete world he saw when he opened his eyes was completely barren, and that little girl nagging under my tree every day was just an illusion...
Junior brother said that it is wrong to be obsessed with illusions that have never existed...it is a big mistake to be tempted by illusions...
Junior brother said that she never existed in the world, all she existed was just a phantom in my heart. If you cut off your obsession, you can hopefully see the world in his eyes...
I followed my junior brother's method and ignored his life and death step by step...
I regard everything as illusion, and with this, I touch the power of the palm...
However, do you know that kind of heartache!
One day, she almost died in front of me. If I ignore her life and death, then I can follow my junior brother's method and fully possess the power of the throne...
In the end, I did not have the heart to see her die, but used my magical powers to send her home, and used my magical powers to protect her from death...
Her illness eventually recovered... But in the end, she didn't know that I saved her, and she never returned to the mountains and said a word to me... Later, I watched her return to the mortal world, and watched her get married and have children. , looking at her peace and joy, I turned my past heartbeat into a shadow, which will remain in the Buddhist talisman forever... This shadow is the karma of my cultivation, which cannot be cut off because there is a bottleneck in my cultivation. Be diligent. I used to be the number one in Qisong cultivation, but now I am down to the fourth. I may be downgraded to the fifth, sixth, seventh in the future...
If I cut off this shadow, I can achieve enlightenment, but I don't want to...
If I embrace this shadow, I will no longer be in such pain, but I dare not...
What I cultivate is Buddha. If I embrace obsession, all my previous cultivation will turn into nothingness when the fire of karma burns my body...Buddha, don't cling to it. You are not an ancient Buddha. You are very lucky...
Even if you retain your obsession, you will not face the difficulty of being burned by the fire of karma... You can do whatever you want, but I can't...
If I lose all my cultivation, I will no longer be me, just an ancient pine without intelligence...
What I am afraid of is not the pain of losing my cultivation, but the fear of losing my spiritual intelligence, like grass and trees, being truly ruthless, and forgetting that girl doll...
I don’t want to forget everything in the flames of karma!
Millions of years later, that female doll has long since turned into dust. A dead person will no longer have feelings...
But I am different. There is always a shadow in my heart that cannot be cut off, embraced, ignored, or forgotten...
Of course you don’t bother to understand such a confused and undecided Buddhist talisman, and you don’t need to understand it...
You are the ancient demon, I am the ancient Buddha, and you are not me. After all, you cannot understand my feelings. However, I don’t allow you to underestimate my Buddhist talisman, because there is her shadow in the talisman..."
After Namu Si finished speaking, it was as if he had poured out tens of millions of years of pain, and he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
It turned out that he had been influenced by her invisibly and turned into such a chatty person...
Was it possible that she talked so much back then because she had been holding back the discomfort and had nowhere to vent it...
Ning Fan turned around, remained silent, and looked at the female doll in the Wooden Four Buddha Talisman again.
He had a bit of a misunderstanding. This Mu Si may have done something wrong, but the feelings that were integrated into the Buddhist talisman were not false.
Mu Si was wrong about something. He couldn't understand what Mu Si did, and it had nothing to do with whether he was an ancient demon or not!
"If I were you, I would choose to save people like you, but I would not be as confused as you are. I can't understand your mood. This has nothing to do with whether I am an ancient demon, but because the Tao is different!"
"If I were you, if I were you..."
At this moment, Ning Fan suddenly remembered his decision not to be beheaded.
He doesn't want to cut off his love or forget the paper crane, even if it's to form an elixir!
It wasn't because he was an ancient demon that he dared to be wanton, but because he didn't forget, he stepped into the true demon path!
With the index finger of his right hand, he actually drew his own magic talisman with one stroke in front of Mu Si.
With one stroke, the magic thoughts contained in the magic talisman changed!
Originally, the pattern of the giant Mo Luo stood side by side with the pine pattern, but this time, Ning Fan drew the giant Mo Luo under the tree.
This scene is like a young man with overwhelming demonic energy who is realizing something under the tree.
"No, no...if this young man were me, then this tree shouldn't be a pine..."
Ning Fan's eyes were confused for a moment.
Thousands of years of memories are pouring out at this moment, as if they want to be drawn into the pattern by Ning Fan... (To be continued.)
