"Senior Brother Huang?!" Yu Tianqing exclaimed and pulled her hand out of his.
Huang Yiliang said apologetically, "It's so abrupt. I'm just too excited."
Yu Tianqing silently took two steps back and distanced himself.
At this time, I heard a sneer from Yue Yuehong.
"Senior Brother Huang? The sun is in the middle of the sky at this time. When should we set off?"
Huang Yiliang stood up and said, "We can set off now. With our pace, we can reach the rest stop this evening."
Jiuyuehong tilted her head, "Then let's go."
The trees are dense, the moss is thick and green, and the shades of green on both sides are like umbrella canopies, blocking out the bright sun. The mountain breeze brings refreshing, making people feel happy. Occasionally, a few hares run around, making it look wild and interesting.
Yu Tianqing followed the two of them and couldn't help but ask, "Senior Brother Huang, Senior Sister Hong, I just heard you say in your conversation that hunting in Cangmang Mountain is against the law?"
Because Jiuyuehong lost to Yu Tianqing in the competition, she always kept a distance from Yu Tianqing intentionally or unintentionally. At this time, she did not answer.
Huang Yiliang said, "There is indeed such a rule. However, this was established thousands of years ago when the Taoist ancestors were here. Since then, the Central Plains righteous path has not been specifically stipulated. Therefore, there will still be some people who come to Cangmang Mountain to hunt overtly or covertly. If Even in the outer area of Cangmang Mountain, we all turned a blind eye."
Yue Yuehong laughed and said, "Why is it that Daozu's words are not fulfilled?"
Huang Yiliang said, "Of course it's a matter of course, but..." He said with embarrassment, "Such abuses have been around since ancient times. The ancients were still like this, but what can we, the younger generations, do?"
Yu Tianqing asked in confusion, "Why did Dao Ancestor leave such rules in the first place?"
Huang Yiliang said, "The Taoist ancestor once subdued the evil beasts that were causing harm to the people in Cangmang Mountain. At that time, he went deep into the mountain to eliminate the evil beasts. However, after the Taoist ancestor came out, he left behind rules that prohibited monks from entering the Cangmang Mountain to hunt wild beasts. He said It is because God has the virtue of good health, and it is even more difficult to cultivate spiritual beasts. Not only can they not be hunted at will, but they are also not allowed to disturb them at will."
"So that's how it is." Yu Tianqing praised, "The Taoist ancestor is indeed kind and virtuous, and his kindness has extended to all directions."
"It's a pity that these rules are in vain now. I don't know whether it is because they don't take Tao Ancestor seriously or they don't take Heavenly Dao seriously." Yue Yuehong said coldly.
Huang Yiliang chuckled and said, "Junior Sister Hong is serious. It's not easy for all living beings. As fellow cultivators, we have to understand sometimes."
"Oh?" Jiuyuehong raised the corner of her mouth, "From Senior Brother Huang's tone, it seems that he has a different opinion."
Huang Yiliang looked at the two of them and asked, "As a monk, what is the most helpless thing?"
Yue Yuehong said cheerfully, "Of course it's because I can't achieve my goal."
Yu Tianqing said, "For me, the biggest helplessness is probably not knowing the true meaning of Tao."
Jiuyuehong looked at her in surprise.
Huang Yiliang smiled and said, "Junior Sister Yu has high aspirations."
Yu Tianqing felt ashamed and said, "If you don't know the true meaning of Taoism, I'm afraid everything you do will be in vain."
Huang Yiliang sighed quietly, "In this world, the only one who can truly understand the supreme Taoist meaning is Dao Ancestor. Junior Sister Yu is worthy of being a disciple of Daozhen Sect, with lofty ambitions."
Yu Tianqing said lightly, "It's just the duty of a Taoist cultivator."
Huang Yiliang smiled faintly, and then said, "But how many people in the world are as talented and blessed with opportunities as Junior Sister Yu?"
"So, the spiritual beasts in Cangmang Mountain can satisfy their inherent defects?" Yue Yuehong said suddenly.
Huang Yiliang was slightly stunned and sighed, "The number of spiritual beasts in Cangmang Mountain is far beyond our imagination. Some of the rare spiritual beasts are simply treasures. Their skin and bones can be made into weapons and equipment, and their internal organs and flesh are even more valuable." The holy medicine in the medicine can nourish the essence. With the blessing of these things, then breaking through the realm of cultivation is no longer the unique qualification of genius monks. Ordinary monks can also reach the peak."
A hint of fanaticism gradually emanated from his eyes, "Let me ask, which cultivator wouldn't be tempted?"
Jiuyuehong said in a cold tone, "So, hunting becomes a reasonable behavior?"
Huang Yiliang said calmly, "Junior Sister Hong is a phoenix among people and a proud daughter of heaven. She is escorted by her masters all the way, and she is blessed with countless artifacts and Taoism. Naturally, she will look down on these."
Jiuyuehong snorted coldly, turned her head away, and stopped answering.
I occasionally heard wild beasts chirping, causing birds to flutter in the forest, and even saw a few wild boars and brown bears fighting with each other, which was full of wild fun and vitality.
Yu Tianqing couldn't help but sigh, "Can the heart essence of these animals really nourish the essence of a Taoist?"
Huang Yiliang affirmed, "Naturally."
Yu Tianqing said again, "Isn't it a waste of moral virtue to plunder other people's vitality to nourish oneself?"
Huang Yiliang was silent, and after a while he said, "These beasts have low spiritual consciousness, and it is extremely rare for one of them to achieve Taoism. If their flesh and blood are used to support Taoists and help them succeed in Taoism, it will also be regarded as a meritorious deed." pieces."
Yu Tianqing was speechless.
What is the meaning of life? Is it the definition of the weak by the strong, or is the life of the weak inherently dispensable?
The sun sets at dusk, and the clouds on Cangshan Mountain return to their nests.
In Cangmang Mountain, there is a pine and bamboo wooden building, which is the rest stop set up by Huanghuamen here.
The fragrance of rosin overflows, the bamboos are green and elegant, you can see the green water and green mountains when you open the door, and you can see the bright moon and the clear breeze when you come back. It is truly a pure land with unparalleled elegance and elegance.
"What a beautiful place." Yu Tianqing couldn't help but admire.
Huang Yiliang chuckled and said, "The Patriarch of my sect was originally a Sanxian who practiced alone in Cangmang Mountain. Later, he became the guardian of Cangmang Mountain due to the entrustment of the Taoist Patriarch. The Patriarch felt that there was a long way to go, so he went out to build a temple and recruit many disciples. Huanghuamen was established. However, the tradition of going to the mountains to do no valleys has not been interrupted and continues to this day. Therefore, on weekdays, this is the place where my brothers and I go to do no valleys and enter concentration."
Jiuyuehong looked around, took a look, and said, "It seems that it has been taken care of very well..."
Huang Yiliang smiled and said, "Since we are welcoming two junior sisters, we naturally have to tidy up carefully."
The bamboo building is divided into two floors. Huang Yiliang took Yu Tianqing and Yue Yuehong around and said, "The rooms are all empty and have been specially cleaned by someone. Why don't the two junior sisters choose a room each."
Jiuyuehong smiled and seemed to mean something, "As long as there is no special smell, I can live anywhere."
Huang Yiliang smiled and said nothing.
Jiuyuehong said, "I see there is a private room across from the door downstairs. It's convenient for me to get up early and practice martial arts, so I'll stay there."
Yu Tianqing also said, "There is a room on the second floor with a sliding window facing the sunrise. I will live there."
Huang Yiliang said, "Very good. There is another room on the second floor. How about living next door to Miss Yu? If Miss Yu needs anything, just come to me."
Yu Tianqing said politely, "Thank you, Senior Brother Huang."
Huang Yiliang smiled and said, "You're welcome. I'll prepare some dinner."
