Li Chuan hesitated.
He then heard Gong Wuguang ask: "Is there anything you don't understand about practice?"
This time Li Chuan asked: "Is it really true that the successors of "The Classic of Patterns" cannot cultivate immortality?"
"Does Chief Wen tell you this?" Gong Wuguang asked.
"Yes." Li Chuan admitted.
"If I were a Xuanmen monk, I would tell you the same thing, but I am the supervisor of Qintian Prison. I have a different view from Xuanmen. Xuanmen divides cultivation into many paths. As long as you are unable to embark on these paths, It is impossible to become an immortal; but I feel that the "Pattern Sutra" itself is a path, but the predecessors have never taken this path."
"There are seventeen people recorded as heirs of "The Classic of Patterns". One of them is a good friend of mine. I often ask him for advice. His understanding of patterns has answered many of my doubts. But I know that your understanding of "The Classic of Patterns" "The use of it is completely different from him. He will never be able to use the "Pattern Sutra" to block the knife, and he doesn't know how to mend the pot. I have never seen him mend anything."
Li Chuan was ashamed after hearing this.
Gong Wuguang laughed again and said: "That was more than three hundred years ago. At that time, I lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests and did not serve as an official."
Then, Gong Wuguang said: "Just listen to what Xuanmen says. I have thousands of monks under my command. I don't think they are cultivating immortals. They just practice some exercises and know some spells, so they can go into battle to kill monsters." That's all. Most of them don't have those illusory ideas, but just because they are here, the big demon dare not cause chaos. Only a few people can become immortals. Li Chuan and Xuanmen desperately studied those successful examples and tried to Replicating their actions summarizes the Six Paths of Immortality... In my opinion, it is just a matter of living for hundreds of thousands of years longer, wasting countless time and resources, and finally dying and leaving nothing behind. Down."
Li Chuan felt that Gong Wuguang meant that he should work hard for Qintian Prison.
He didn't answer.
Gong Wuguang turned around and said: "If you have any doubts about "The Classic of Patterns", you can tell me. Although I can't read the book, I have had many discussions with my friends, and maybe I can help you. .”
This time Li Chuan did not refuse. He explained in detail how he repaired things.
After Gong Wuguang heard this, he thought for a moment and said, "Maybe what you see is the original appearance of all things."
"Original image?" This was the second time Li Chuan heard this word.
Gong Wuguang affirmed: "That should be it. What you see is the original appearance of all things, and then your repair action is to return them to their original appearance."
"The original appearance of all things is a dot and a horizontal line?" Li Chuan was incredulous.
"The appearance shown in front of you is one dot and one horizontal line. It might look different if it were someone else." Gong Wuguang sighed, "My friend, at my suggestion, he matched the patterns in the book with all things in the world. , divided them into nine categories and twelve categories, and tried to borrow the power of all things in this way. After hearing what you said today, we thought wrong at first."
"Can I borrow it?" Li Chuan asked.
"You can borrow it, and it's very powerful. I have the scroll he left here," he said, taking out a scroll from his sleeve and handing it to Li Chuan, "You can take a look, maybe you can find something Inspired.”
Li Chuan took it, flipped it through and said, "Can you see the words on it?"
"Of course, I can't see the "Pattern Sutra". I can see the words and patterns he wrote through his own understanding, and so can others, but none of us can use them."
"I can't see it." Li Chuan closed the book.
"How is that possible?" Gong Wuguang was stunned.
"In my eyes, there are only blank sheets of paper."
"It seems that your way can only be explored by yourself."
Li Chuan handed the book back to Gong Wuguang, and he asked: "What happened to the successor of "The Classic of Patterns"?"
Gong Wuguang replied: "I died without any illness at the age of eighty-three. The day before I left, I climbed a mountain and had two pots of meat and three bowls of rice for dinner."
"That's good." Li Chuan suddenly figured it out, "Master Gong, you just asked me whether I planned to stay in Yunqiao Township or go to the capital. I have the answer in my heart. I will go to the capital, not only to the capital, but also to the capital. I still want to go to many places, go to Tianju Mountain to ride a crane, see what people in Xuanmen are like, go to Cangwu Wilderness to see half-demon, and see if they have fluffy ears and tails..."
Come here, you always have to go to various scenic spots to take photos.
"I'm just not ready to go yet," Li Chuan said.
"When do you plan to set off?" Gong Wuguang asked.
"Maybe it will be the next moment, maybe it will be a few months later," Li Chuan walked to the half-open window. He saw Zhu Qingyun still standing by the stone bridge. He didn't know whether it was cold or not. "After all, I will definitely leave next year. of."
"Then I'll wait for you in the capital." Gong Wuguang said.
At this time, Gong Wuguang took out another object and said, "I know that my disciple has found some magic weapons for you, and I also have a magic weapon here to give to you."
Li Chuan turned around and saw Gong Wuguang holding a jade pendant in his hand. He said: "This is the Mingxian Pendant. It can detect monsters. Monsters within a hundred miles of radius have not been detected. The faster it shakes, the more monsters will be away." The closer you get, the monsters that have eaten people will glow red when they get close, and the monsters that have not eaten people will glow white. The disadvantage is that it cannot be accurately located, and it is ineffective for monsters who are good at hiding, or whose talents are hidden."
Li Chuan asked: "Is there any difference between a demon that has eaten people and an ordinary demon?"
"The rules in this world are all made by humans. It is a world created by humans. Even the cultivation methods of the demon clan, 90% come from human monks. Even if the nine stars gather together and the demon star is born, at least for now, the way of humanity is the way of heaven. Eat People harm the harmony of heaven and are hated by heaven." Gong Wuguang explained calmly.
Li Chuan understood who Zhu Qingyun's attitude towards monsters was from. He took the jade pendant and thanked Gong Wuguang.
Gong Wuguang talked about what happened on Xuanshui Mountain again, "After the Immortal Secret Realm was exposed, many Xuanmen monks have appeared around Xuanshui Mountain, all coming for the spiritual treasures. You should not go there recently."
Li Chuan had a psychological shadow on Xuanshui Mountain and said, "I must stay far away from there."
Gong Wuguang recalled Zhu Qingyun's description of Li Chuan's greed for life and fear of death, and said with a smile: "This is just for a while. I have already gone there to look, and there is no spiritual treasure. As for Ancient Immortal Tiansu..." He led the way. Xingdao: "This is not something we, Qin Tian Jian, have to worry about. Let's let Chief Wen and the others worry about it."
Then, Gong Wuguang called Zhu Qingyun in. After the three chatted for a while, Gong Wuguang asked Zhu Qingyun to take Li Chuan home.
In just half a day, Li Chuan picked up the writing he left on the table, crumpled it into a ball and threw it away. Then he lit a candle, took out the "Pattern Sutra" and started reading.
