While boating on the lake, the three of them talked over wine.
The two bodies are far away in the wind. How can An Wen return to the side?
This day...
The autumn breeze was coming, which was very pleasant. Min An and two friends he had met during his travels were sitting in a small boat drinking and talking.
After three rounds of drinking, all three of them were a little tipsy.
Min An saw that the two oars thrown away by the woman in purple were being blown further and further away from the boat. He sighed helplessly: "Cheng Pingping, you threw away my oars, how can we go back?"
Cheng Pingping's smile was hazy, his cheeks seemed to have turned red due to drinking. He looked at Min An's profile and smiled: "Don't be afraid... I'll let Cheng pick it up later."
Cheng Caocao's drunken look immediately sobered up, and he stood up unsteadily, causing the boat to swing violently.
Cheng Caocao immediately tried his best to control his balance, and carefully reached the stern of the boat. He explored the lake water with his hands, then immediately took it back and shook his head: "No... the water is too cold! I am your brother, you don't want to Trick me!"
Cheng Pingping looked at Min An, who immediately shook his head, "I can't... I don't know how to swim!"
"Then let the wind blow you! When you are blown to the shore, you will land again!" Cheng Pingping smiled.
"Aren't you cultivators? Why do you still go into the water to fish?" Min An asked.
"The Tao also comes from the heart. At this moment, our Tao tells us... don't be so anxious to go back! Hahaha!" Cheng Caocao returned to the boat and sat down, sitting cross-legged and raising a glass of wine to drink.
Min An shook his head, thought about it, and asked slowly: "What is the Tao that also comes from the heart?"
"That is...finding the true self in the Tao! Detached from the outside and keeping the Tao in mind!" Cheng Pingping looked at Min An and asked with a smile: "Min An, what is your true self?"
"Me?" Min An was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and looked confused, "I don't even know who I am, so where did I come from..."
"Aren't we all on the way to find our true selves? The same is true for cultivating Taoism!" Cheng took over the words and said with a smile.
"Everyone has a true self, it's just that they have forgotten it or haven't discovered it yet."
"Then..." Min An thought for a while and asked, "What is your true self?"
Cheng Pingping thought hard, then gave up, and said helplessly: "I don't know, that's something I'll think about later. Now I just want to follow my heart and be content with whatever happens!"
Cheng Caocao said thoughtfully: "I don't know either, but I think that one day my Tao will allow me to rise to the sky and look for the true meaning of Tao in the Nine Heavens and Nine Earths. Have you found your true self!"
Min'an didn't understand what they were talking about, so he just asked in a somewhat confused manner: "Is it possible..."
"Your body moves with your heart..." Min An looked at Cheng Pingping and then at Cheng Caocao, "Your true intention of seeking the Tao..."
"...is this your 'true self'?"
boom!
The two auras awakened, and they looked at Min An fiercely. An extremely mysterious feeling came to them.
As the three of them looked at each other, Cheng Pingping and Cheng Caocao slowly stood up.
"It turns out that the true self we are looking for has always been at our feet! So that's it... That's it..."
"You are not part of the game, so you can clearly see what's going on!"
Cheng Pingping suddenly looked confused and kept mumbling:
"Pingping...Anan..."
"Pingping, Anan!"
"...Cheng...An'an!"
And Cheng Caocao on the side suddenly seemed to be possessed by a demon: "Who am I? Why am I here?"
"I am... Dao Hua!"
The two of them looked at Min An, as if they had remembered something, with endless complexities in their eyes...
A breeze came, and the two people on the boat dispersed with the wind.
Min An was left stunned, looking at the two people disappearing in front of him, muttering to himself: "Let's go, there's no need to be so sudden..."
Looking at the missing oars, he said helplessly:
"At least get me back to the shore!"
...
Min An walked south from the imperial city and was alone.
On this day, I met a gangster on the road, but by mistake, the gangster died suddenly.
Min An felt very puzzled when he looked at the gangster who suddenly died suddenly and inexplicably. M.biQuge.biZ
However, Min'an thought of his two traveling friends and fell into confusion. He asked himself:
"What is my 'real self'? Punishing rape and eradicating evil?"
Min An shook his head and walked away:
"It seems...wrong!"
Min An didn't see the soft figure in a white dress who was watching him secretly, with the same confusion in his eyes.
...
On this day, Min'an encountered another hungry refugee and secretly helped.
Looking at the smiling faces of the refugees who were extremely satisfied because the master opened the warehouse to stock grain, Min An felt a warmth in his heart.
"Is my 'true self' about doing good deeds and accumulating virtue?"
Min An left in deep thought:
"It seems...not right either!"
...
On this day, the people are safe and happy in Peach Mountain. The peach trees are red and withered branches are all over the mountain.
Min An was extremely happy. He walked into the mountain and walked into the scenery. Following the fragrance of peach blossoms, he gradually entered the depths of Peach Mountain.
The peach blossoms are dancing all over the mountains and plains, the whole ground is covered with pink, and the fragrance is coming, like a fairyland.
Min An was walking among the peach blossoms and saw an old man playing chess alone under a peach tree.
Min An stepped forward curiously and asked respectfully: "Old man, how can you play chess?"
The old man raised his head and asked with a smile: "Why can't one person play chess?"
"Playing chess with yourself, what does it matter if you win or lose? You are the winner, but you are still the loser!" Min An asked strangely.
"Every move I make is a game with who I was at the previous moment."
"As long as I keep playing, the winner will eventually be determined. The moment the winner is determined, I have already won!"
The old man continued to say with a smile: "As long as there is winning or losing, I win. The loser is the 'I' of the last moment. But what does the 'I' of the last moment have to do with the me of this moment?"
"You are not you, I am not me!"
"This person is playing chess, and what he is playing is the world of mortals, and also the way of immortality..."
When Su Mo was in a daze, the old man disappeared.
