"I was thinking that yesterday at the foot of the mountain, the businessmen called us real people, and then I thought, can we cultivate into what they call 'real people' in this life?"
"That's just their honorific title."
"I know."
"Junior sister is very talented, so why worry about not being able to achieve it? What's more, as long as you work hard, you may reach the end of your life, and when you look back, you will find that your end point is not where you originally imagined."
"Where is that?"
"On the way, in the place you have already walked."
"!"
The junior sister was startled and raised her head to stare at him.
At this time, the two of them had already reached the mountain, and the newly built steps came to an end. In front of them was the rough old road, and the stone walls beside them were steep and rough. If you use your hands and feet together, you can still climb to the top of the mountain.
Lin Jue stopped here for two steps.
"Junior sister, I'm going to the top of the mountain."
"I'll keep building roads!"
The two looked at each other and separated.
The junior sister has built the road to the top of the mountain.
They saw her lying on the mountain, cutting the rocks with her hands, throwing the big rocks off the cliff, and wiping the rocks over and over again with her palms to smooth them. When the mountain wind blew, the top of the mountain was covered with white sand.
This place is dangerous, and people are always worried that she will fall.
If you look up, you will see the strange peaks and rocks. Lin Jue happened to be meditating on the top, and the little fox was sitting next to him, with his hair swaying in the wind.
Taoist Yunhe once said that although he practices Yin and Yang spiritual methods, it seems that absorbing the spiritual charm of Yin and Yang is enough, but the heaven and earth have their own spiritual energy. In a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, it is not a bad thing to absorb more of the spiritual charm of heaven and earth.
So one person practiced magic and the other practiced spiritual magic.
The two of them were very close to each other.
The junior sister was tired from building the road, so she sat down and ate some wild fruits.
Sometimes I also sleep on the cliff.
The little fox got bored, so he played with the stones on the ground, as if he was trying to dig a hole in the stones.
Sometimes it is really boring, or it is attracted by something in the mountains, so it jumps down the mountain like an antelope and a leopard, looking here and there. Occasionally, it encounters a mountain spirit and knows that it is the Fuqiu Peak Fuqiu Temple.
The Taoist priests raised foxes and played with them.
Only Lin Jue was the most dedicated in his practice.
I don't know how long it took.
"call……"
Lin Jue suddenly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of white air.
If you think about it carefully, you will see that the growth of Taoism is not slow, but we are still far away from the 'real person' who has been reborn as Wang Jizi said.
People at the foot of the mountain often refer to Taoists as "Zhenren", but in fact most Taoists are not worthy of this title.
At that time, Wang Jizi spoke in general terms. Later, Lin Jue consulted Taoist Yunhe seriously, and then he realized that the seemingly common title of Zhenren actually originally referred to a person who has attained the true Taoism.
If in ancient times, there were no palaces in the sky and immortals lived in the human world, the "real people" as the Spiritual Method Sect calls them would be those who could become immortals.
When you go up the mountain, you are an immortal, and when you are alive, you are a real person.
It can be said that the real people of the Lingfa sect are gods, and there is actually no distinction between the two being strong or weak.
In ancient times, many great powers were also called real people.
Even now, after a Taoist from the Spiritual Method Sect has become a real person, as long as they are willing and there are no other obstacles, they can ascend to heaven and become gods, and they will never be heavenly soldiers or generals, social gods or earthly gods, or gods' attendants. Little God, if your reputation in the mortal world is better, getting a "true king" won't be a problem.
However, such gods cannot last long, nor can they be said to have great supernatural powers. Just like most of the gods above the nine heavens at this time, their powers are limited and their lifespan is limited. They have been replaced countless times throughout the ages.
Therefore, above this, there are great powers and true immortals.
Up to now, the Fulu Sect also calls Taoists who have obtained certain high-level Taoist positions as real people. This is because although these Taoists are still in the mortal world, they have already completed their cultivation and are ranked in the Nine Heavens. When their merits are completed, they will naturally ascend to heaven after death. , becoming a god is also the ultimate pursuit of the Fulu Sect monks.
"If you can become a real person, you will be somewhat free in this world."
Lin Jueru thought.
It's just that it's not a close thing.
"well……"
Lin Jue stopped to rest and took out wild fruits. He first gave one to the fox beside him, then slowly peeled it and ate it.
I was really bored, so I lay down and blew some air.
The fox followed his example and actually lay down too.
The world in the mountains is really vast.
Until the junior sister shouted at him from below.
At dusk from the foot of Bishan Mountain, the mountain moon follows people back home.
…
Lin Jue was not idle at all. He practiced cooking every day. When he had free time, he poured out the sauerkraut in the temple. Taking advantage of the abundance of vegetables in the summer and autumn season, he made several new jars.
I took another giant elixir.
The effectiveness of this one is very poor.
No wonder Wangjizi had such rules at that time. Almost everyone could get one pill, and most people could get two pills. Just eating one pill was very effective, and two pills were the icing on the cake. As for the third pill, I can only say It's better than nothing, definitely better than rewards.
The heart of the elders.
July is gradually passing and the weather is getting cooler again.
This is particularly evident in the mountains.
The breeze blew through the forest tops, and there was no heat at all. Even in the afternoon, sitting in the courtyard was no longer hot. On the contrary, I felt particularly cool and comfortable under the mountain breeze.
At this time, Panasonic was sitting with two people.
One was wearing a loose robe, holding a wine gourd, and was talking. The other was sitting opposite, listening carefully.
Neither of them used a futon, nor did they sit on a bench or chair, they just sat casually on the ground.
"The legendary idea of ​​forming an army by sowing beans is that the gods can grab a handful of beans and scatter them on the ground to form thousands of troops. How can we have that ability? What we can do is carve beans into an army.
"You have to find old trees in the mountains, carve them into weapons according to the magic, and use the aura of heaven and earth to sacrifice the essence of the sun and the moon. You also have to invite the remnant souls to give it wisdom. When you use it, throw it out, recite a mantra in your heart, and it will naturally fall to the ground.
Becoming a soldier. Although there are many things to pay attention to, it is roughly like this.
“It’s a time-consuming job.
"If you want to learn, I have some leftover wood that I used when I first started school. I can't use it now, so you can just use it. Otherwise, you can go to the mountains to look for it and leave what others have planted, and others will come to your door.
"
The third senior brother looked good and was in a good mood. He took two sips of wine while talking.
The month when Lin Jue was cooking was probably the best month for several people in the temple. The Taoist temple was originally leisurely, with not much to do and not many worries. Eating, sleeping and cultivating every day were the top priority. Now eating is the most important thing.
Xiang has become very good, the weather is no longer hot and sleeping is comfortable, and everyone is in a good mood.
"Thank you very much, senior brother."
"We are all senior brothers, so why are we so polite? Some people are just not interesting enough!" The third senior brother raised his head to drink from the jug and sighed, "I only found out a few days ago that someone drank that drink on Langtou Mountain.
Forget about the thousand-day wine brewed by the tiger, I got an extra glass, but out of consideration for the friendship between monsters, I gave it to the wolf monster and didn’t bring it back to my senior brother to drink!"
"At that time, I didn't know that Third Senior Brother liked to drink. Didn't you know that after you came down from the mountain, you brought alcohol to Senior Brother?"
"Haha!" Third Brother laughed loudly and added, "But in addition to the wood, you also need a fine carving knife, which you have to buy down the mountain, and the price is not cheap."
"burin?"
"This is a delicate thing, like a barber's knife. It's not cheap. A set costs about ten taels of silver."
"..."
Ten taels of silver?
This really stumped him.
Lin Jue had twenty taels of silver before, but he asked the villagers to take them back at the beginning of the month to use for his uncle and aunt to protect themselves from floods or improve their lives. He thought there was nothing to spend money on in the mountains, but he didn't expect that only ten days had passed.
The place to use money appears.
Where does this money come from?
Can Master reimburse me?
"What? No money? What's the point? Such a big man like Yishan, with such abilities, can he still be stumped by this?" The third senior brother shook his head and said in a very free and easy manner, "The game and exotic plants and medicinal materials in the mountains are no good.
If you steal a few pills from your second senior brother and sell them down the mountain, won't you get these ten taels of silver easily?"
"..."
The third senior brother laughed and stopped mentioning these things. Instead, he explained to him some simple principles of "carving beans into soldiers". When he got to the point where he was interested, he handed him a jug and gave him a glass of wine.
It's gradually approaching dusk.
There was a knock on the door suddenly.
There were a few well-dressed middle-aged men standing at the door but they didn't dare to come in. Instead, they only leaned half of their bodies in and looked around, as if they were afraid of offending someone.
Hearing the two people preaching here, they looked at each other and felt strange. Then they asked in a low voice: "May I ask the two Taoist priests, is this Fuqiu Temple?"
"Exactly."
Lin Jue and his third senior brother looked at each other and both stood up.
"Father, please come in."
"But are you here to offer incense?"
"Oh! It's fine if it's Fuqiu Temple! We're here to offer incense, we're here to offer incense, and we're also here to ask the Taoist priests to come down the mountain to help us!" A man walked up quickly and said, "We are all stupid.
People from the county, I heard that a few days ago, an expert from Guiguan captured the goblin in Yixian County and recovered the money. Now the goblin has started causing trouble again. We are here to ask the Taoist Master for help!"
The other men also followed behind and walked quickly. Most of them looked a little haggard, probably because they had been tortured badly. Now that they had arrived here, their eyes were full of hope.
Lin Jue couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this.
The city had been quiet for so long, and I thought that there were no more monsters, or that the Taoist friends from Qi Yunshan had arrived in the city, and there were no monsters left. I didn't expect that after such a long time, someone would come to the door.
Chapter completed!
