In fact, regardless of whether Fei Changfang sincerely seeks Taoism, it is very simple to want him to practice.
That is to force him to a dead end. At that time, in order to take revenge on the person who made him lose the treasure, he will inevitably embark on the path of cultivation.
But Lingqing wouldn't do that, and didn't even want to think about it.
Tieguai Li and the others also understood this truth, but they also would not do it and did not want to think about it.
There is love in the world, and the Eight Immortals gather together for justice.
When this love turns into hatred, even if he succeeds in practice, will he really be able to gather righteousness?
How do you know that he is not a demon?
And those who do this will become extreme over time and become evil.
"Fei Changfang, what do you cherish?" While the two were arguing, Ling Qing suddenly asked.
"Of course it's my mother and Zhenniang. We can live in peace." Fei Changfang said matter-of-factly.
"You said, you heard Tieguai Li and others say that you are one of the Eight Immortals, and you have heard it hundreds of times.
Then you should know what the Eight Immortals mean, right? "Ling Qing asked.
"It means you want me to become an immortal." Fei Changfang said in an angry tone.
"It's not that we want you to become an immortal, but that you are destined to become an immortal. You can't hide from it." Ling Qing didn't take his attitude seriously.
He shook his head and said, "'Heaven is about to entrust this person with a great responsibility. He must first strain his mind and will, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, deplete his body, and mess up his actions. Therefore, tempting his heart and forbearance has benefited him. cannot.'
God has made arrangements for you, but if you are unwilling to do it, then what awaits you will be many hardships.
Until you are desperate, you still have to fulfill your destiny. "
"Haha, what kind of bullshit destiny is this? Is it wrong that I just want to live an ordinary life?
Why do they come to force me one by one? Fei Changfang sneered and asked Lingqing emotionally.
"You can go against the will of heaven and change your destiny. Cultivation and seeking the Tao are the biggest ways to change your destiny." Ling Qing looked at him calmly and said.
"When you can dominate yourself, and even dominate the way of heaven, you will naturally get what you want."
"What I want is just a peaceful life, not becoming an immortal today, a Buddha tomorrow, and saving people the day after tomorrow." Fei Changfang still said disdainfully.
“What you want is what your mother and wife want.
But unfortunately, often when everyone wants something, it must be something that everyone asks for but cannot get.
Why don't you give up what you want and fulfill what your mother and wife want? "Ling Qing asked.
“With me here, they can live what they want and what I want.
If I give up my ordinaryness, how can they be ordinary? Fei Changfang asked rhetorically.
"The truth is this, but only you gave up your ordinary life, and at the same time, your mother and Zhenniang lost their ordinary life with you.
Only then can they live an ordinary life without you.
It should be noted that perfection is ultimately short-lived and perishable.
What's more, now is the time when the evil calamity is coming to the world, and thousands of people in the world are facing the crisis of seeking ordinary things but not getting it.
If you have ever been a general, you should know that if everyone only thinks about their own ordinaryness and does not sacrifice themselves on the battlefield for it.
Then when the enemy comes, everyone will face the enemy's trampling. "Ling Qing looked at him and said.
"I hope you can think about it.
Just wait for the evil disaster to come and destroy your ordinary life.
Do you regret why you are so stubborn today?
Do you regret that the loss of your strength has caused the lives of all beings to suffer? "
After saying that, Ling Qing flashed away.
Lingqing's wish is to live forever.
And when he became an immortal in reality, he had actually done it.
If you have a solid warehouse, you will know etiquette; if you have enough food and clothing, you will know honor and disgrace.
When he gained immortality, what he sought was the Tao.
And for the sake of Tao, he was determined to sacrifice his life to protect Tao.
Not only because of his confidence, even if only his true spirit is left after being beaten, the master will fish him out of reincarnation again.
What's more, Tao is the foundation of his immortality. Without Tao, immortality will not exist.
If you give up the Tao for the sake of immortality, you will lose both, and an immortal moth will not be valued by the Master.
If he sacrifices his eternal life for the sake of the Tao, he will gain both. Even if the master does not come to save him, as long as he does not lose the Tao in his heart, he will eventually rise again.
What he said to Fei Changfang did not mean to force him to sacrifice himself for others.
But when you tell him, you are also telling yourself.
There is no need to deliberately fight for everything, but if you know that what you want is already in danger and are unwilling to change, you will inevitably be abandoned.
If Fei Changfang fails to wake up in this life, his family will be ruined and he will die in the end.
After he changes his personality in the next life, he will still become one of the Eight Immortals.
This is a destiny and a destiny.
It's just that when the time comes, he will lose his mother and beloved wife and become a different person.
Isn't it the same for Lingqing himself?
Coming to this world and being involved in this catastrophe was not something he could escape if he wanted to.
All he can do now is actively participate in it.
Understand the mystery, survive the disaster, and prove the path again.
Lingqing's words made Fei Changfang thoughtful, but they did not make him repent.
After all, if it was really that easy, Tieguai Li wouldn't have saved him for decades without seeing any results.
He sneered and was about to leave when he suddenly realized that Lu Dongbin was not leaving with him.
I couldn't help but ask: "Why haven't you left yet?"
"I want to see what you mean by having a clear connection with Zhen Niang," Lu Dongbin said.
He didn't understand why two people could reach this point because of love.
He and Lingqing were born from the same mother, so it was impossible for him to do this.
"Then come with me." Fei Changfang said, turning around and heading towards their seclusion.
There were his mother, his wife Zhenniang, and a rescued little ginseng spirit, who was like a son.
Lu Dongbin had a meal at Fei Changfang's house. He watched the various performances of him and Zhenniang, and listened to the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meeting on the Magpie Bridge just to see each other once a year.
Thoughtful in my heart, I sighed that there is love in the world.
On the other side, Lingqing returned to Xiaoyaoju and happened to meet Han Zhongli and others getting ready to go.
"Oh, you came just in time, I was looking for you." Han Zhongli saw him and said quickly: "The Queen Mother held a peach conference, and she even specially asked you and Dong Bin to attend.
Hurry up and get ready.
By the way, where is Dong Bin? "
"He went to Fei Changfang's home." Lingqing replied.
"How are you doing with Fei Changfang?" Tieguai Li came over and asked.
"It's probably impossible. I don't think he has any hope of becoming an immortal in this life.
You might as well take off his Changchun Pill, let him die of old age naturally, and wait for him to save him in his next life. "Ling Qing looked at him and shook his head.
"Oh, one less life means one less trouble. It's better for the Eight Immortals to gather together as soon as possible to survive the evil calamity." Tieguai Li said a little irritably.
“Haste makes waste, and if there are not enough hardships, how can it come true?
If you decorate him like this, it will only make him experience more suffering.
Moreover, we only listen to people seeking the Tao, but there is no reason to seek the Tao from others.
Even if he was destined to become an immortal, he shouldn't be chased and forced upon him like this. "Ling Qing shook his head.
"Okay, don't worry about this for now. Let's set off quickly. It's hard to talk in front of the Queen Mother after it's late." Han Zhongli saw that he was talking about something else and quickly interrupted.
Then he said to Zhang Guolao: "Guolao, your magic donkey can move quickly. Please go and bring Lu Dongbin up to heaven. We will take the first step."
"Okay, you have to leave some of those fine wines and delicacies for me!" Zhang Guolao said reluctantly.
"Don't worry, don't worry, we'll leave everything to you." He Xiangu smiled and pushed him away.
Turning around, he naturally took Ling Qing's hand and said, "You are not at a high level now and cannot enter the Nantian Gate.
I'll take you up. "
After that, he took him to fly to the heaven on the clouds, and Han Zhongli and others also took off on the clouds.
Heaven is in this world, but it is not in this world either.
If you can't find the door, no matter how high you fly to the sky, you won't be able to find the door to heaven.
Therefore, although Lingqing and Lu Dongbin could fly with swords, due to their insufficient level, they had to rely on Han Zhongli and others to guide them if they wanted to go to heaven.
Lingqing watched the auspicious clouds flying higher and higher, with mountains and rivers under his feet, and he couldn't help but feel relaxed.
"Look, the world is vast, all at your feet, you can feel free and at ease.
People in the world say that gods are good, and they are good here. Lingqing looked at He Xiangu and smiled.
"Okay, stop looking around, lest you accidentally fall down.
Only when you get to the Heavenly Palace will you know what it means to overlook the three realms. "He Xiangu couldn't help but smile when she saw his look.
At that moment, Ling Qing stopped looking and focused on following her upwards.
After a while, there were thousands of glowing lights and thousands of auspicious colors in front of them, and a portal thousands of feet high appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
It is Nantianmen that has arrived.
"Okay, while there is still some time in this meeting, let's go to see Laojun first. When Guolao and Dongbin arrive, we will go to the Peach Conference together."
After entering Nantianmen, Han Zhongli said to several people.
Originally, when they did not establish a happy residence in the lower realm, they mostly gathered together in the Tusita Palace to practice cultivation.
At this time, I just happened to go there to do some repairs and pay my respects to Laojun.
The other immortals had no objections, and Ling Qing also wanted to see if this Supreme Master was the Master Xuandu when he first became a disciple.
Following the cloud road, looking at the beautiful scenery of the Heavenly Palace all around, the immortals came all the way to Lihentian, the thirty-third heaven.
When he arrived here, Han Zhongli felt as if he was at home, becoming more and more casual.
"Senior brother, I have an invitation." At this time, two boys, one gold and one silver, came to the crowd and said.
"Okay, I'm about to go see you." After hearing this, everyone hurriedly straightened their clothes and followed the two boys to the front of Tusita Palace.
The two boys asked everyone to wait outside, then entered the palace, went to the Tai Chi Bagua stage and bowed, saying, "Master, several senior brothers are here."
Sitting on the stage was an old man in Taoist attire with white beard and hair. He opened his slightly closed eyes and looked outside the palace.
I was seeing Tieguai Li, Han Zhongli and other people.
His eyes fell on Ling Qing, a clear light flashed in his eyes, he shook the dust flyer in his hand and said: "Let them come in."
