The young Taoist boy stood on the steps, and the old man Yang from the medicine shop often sat there holding a tobacco stick and puffing away smoke.
Chen Ping'an stood under the eaves, bowed his head in a formal manner, and remained silent.
It wasn't that Chen Pingan was being mysterious, but that he really didn't know how to answer. Mainly because he was worried about involving Li Liu, so he had to bite the bullet and keep silent.
The young Taoist boy shook his sleeves, returned a decent Confucian bow, and smiled without saying a word.
The young man sat on the steps and stretched out a hand, "Sit wherever you want. We are all guests, so don't care too much."
I am a passer-by, and so are you for the time being, but not necessarily in the future.
Chen Ping'an moved to sit on the bench, facing the young man across a courtyard with four waterways.
There is no need to guess the identity of the young Taoist boy in front of him.
He once rode a bull through the border and traveled around the wild world. With a single finger, he knocked the old demon of the old throne back to the bottom of the ancient well, leaving indelible traces on the opponent's body for thousands of years.
It even made the Great Patriarch fled to heaven for the first time and did not dare to show his face.
Rao was Taoist Master Sun of Daxuan Du Temple, a Taoist master who "greeted Zhen Wudi every once in a while". It is said that when traveling around the world, he and Bai Ye and others always mentioned the Taoist ancestor who founded Bai Yujing.
, it’s the same as being honored, and I swear that the best fighter in the world is still the one in our Qingming world.
For Taozu, pretending to be confused while pretending to understand is meaningless. As for pretending to be confused and understanding, it is even more ridiculous.
Daozu glanced at Chen Ping'an's Fourteenth Realm atmosphere and said with a smile: "The word etiquette is difficult to have both reason and reason, and not to be rigid. The young master is still very powerful."
Then Daozu revealed the secret, "The fact that you are able to tolerate Lu Chen's state of affairs and so little dispersion is not only because of Li Sheng and Lu Chen, but also because of your own high attainments in 'Xuzhou'. It has a lot to do with it. Only Dao
Collecting emptiness means that emptiness means the heart is fast, and emptiness means the world is broad. Let me just say that among the people you know, Zhou Mi, Cui Chan, Qi Jingchun, Zheng Juzhong, and Wu Shuangjiang are all similar scholars. In layman's terms, they are a person
Only when you have an empty stomach can you eat more. Why can Taoist cultivators be different from ordinary people? What does it mean to go into the mountains to cultivate immortals?
With merit and blessings, move in."
Wearing a green shirt and sitting upright, he looked like a young school boy who had just learned how to read.
Nowadays, several mountaintop monks in the world, no matter they are in the Ascension Realm or the Fourteenth Realm, do not dare to call Zhou Mi by his first name, for fear of revealing the secrets of the human world to heaven.
Dao Ancestor smiled, this guy seemed to be kept in the dark, which is normal. The three religions and hundreds of schools of thought, how could that one person be recognized by the sword wielder at a young age? There were even two senior brothers watching, Chen
Ping An naturally breaks my mind and I never thought that I have been traveling far and wide for so many years. In fact, I not only travel at night with a candle, but also carry a lantern during the day.
But Taozu was not in a hurry to tell the truth and asked: "You have been close to Buddhism since you were a child, and you have a lot of experience in affirming and denying. So you must know the meaning of the three sentences?"
Chen Pingan nodded, "Buddha said the world is not the world, so it is called the world."
Daozu smiled and said: "Good words, but let's look at it more. You might as well give an example. The truth is that the sky and the earth are long and empty. The example is the post ferry, so that the listener can have a foothold. Otherwise, the master can reason and ride a crane to Yangzhou."
Chen Ping'an said: "Su Zi has a poem, Danzhou Yunxia Qianjiang Tide. I hate it in every way before it arrives. When I get to Yuanlai, nothing happens. Danzhou Yunxia Qianjiang Tide."
Daozu said: "Speak again."
Chen Ping'an replied: "The Tao can be Tao, but it is very Tao."
The Taoist Patriarch smiled and said: "No wonder Su Zi is more happy to give you the copybook than Liu Qi. It's no wonder that Sun Guanzhu favors you. When he returned to his hometown, he told everyone he met that there is a little Taoist friend in Haoran who is a wonderful person."
Chen Ping'an was a little embarrassed. Even before he went to Qing Ming Tianxia, ​​his reputation was already all over the streets. Does this mean that the fragrance of wine is not afraid of the alley?
Daozu asked: "Have you ever thought about why your two senior brothers dare to catch turtles in an urn? Thousands of years ago, the three of us failed to completely solve the legacy of the old heavenly palace ruins. Now that Zhou Mi has taken over, we will only be able to
The difficulty is even greater. But now that the three of us have separated, the issue of water control has always been better than sparing. Cui Chan and Qi Jingchun are not short-sighted people, how can they not understand this truth? Think again, why Zhou Mi and
When everyone ascends to heaven, what is he waiting for? Filling up the vacancy of the divine throne is similar to the Qintian Prison of our secular dynasty. It has always been a carrot and a pit."
When Daozu said this, he smiled and said, "Zhou Mi can't just wait for the three of us to block the door, right?"
Chen Ping'an shook his head and said: "This junior can't understand."
"Because there is something happening in the human world that makes all the things that are careful and careful become sparse."
Daozu raised his arm and pointed at Chen Pingan, "It's you, the bird in the cage."
In the heavens and in the world, there is a tug-of-war of mind and character, which ultimately determines who can become a new and more powerful one.
Luolu Mountain? The soul returns to heaven, and the soul returns to earth.
Of course, Zhou Mi must have his own means, find new ways, find new ways to find solutions, and will never sit back and wait.
Daozu said: "So Qingtong Tianjun left you a letter to ask if you have eaten enough."
Chen Ping'an's heart tightened instantly. He clenched his fists and placed them on his knees. He took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice: "Am I the one...one?"
Daozu smiled and said: "Qi Jingchun has indeed put a very heavy burden on your shoulders."
Chen Pingan suddenly became enlightened.
Why would Zou Zi, who knew everything about heaven and earth, start targeting an orphan from Mud Ping Lane so early? An existence like Zou Zi had already figured out life and death, and was beyond good and evil.
When he was young, he went to the mountains to collect medicine, but was blocked by a flash flood. Later, Old Man Yang taught him a breathing method. In exchange, Chen Pingan made a dry tobacco stick.
After returning from the capital city of the Sui Dynasty, he was given a flying sword, which was named Fifteen by Chen Ping'an. Old Man Yang's reason was that his family did not eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year.
In addition, the flying sword embryo whose real name is "Xiao Fengdu" is on the first day of the lunar month and the fifteenth day of the lunar month, which means that you can avoid the first day of the lunar month, but you cannot avoid the fifteenth day of the lunar month.
I never thought that the person who could not hide the most was Chen Pingan himself.
He went on a long trip again and went to the Great Wall of Sword Qi to deliver a sword to Ning Yao. There were zhenqi talismans posted on his legs and feet.
Chen Pingan asked: "Is it me this morning?"
Daozu shook his head and said: "That's too underestimated the Qingtong Tianjun's methods. You asked for this one yourself."
Chen Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief and asked directly: "I dare to ask the ancestors, can you solve this matter, and I am still me?"
The Taoist Patriarch smiled and said, "Seek more blessings for yourself."
Chen Pingan was speechless.
Daozu was probably worried that Chen Ping'an had gone astray. It was actually a good saying, but it became increasingly deviated from its original meaning as it spread in the world, so Daozu later added a word, "Blessed are those who seek for themselves."
Chen Pingan asked: "If Li Liu or Ma Kuxuan saw those words, whose handwriting could it be?"
Chen Ping'an has always mistakenly believed that those words were written by Li Liu or Ma Kuxuan.
Daozu shook his head and said: "Not necessarily. What Li Liu saw might be Dong Shuijing, who seemed to be collecting debts for others, or Lin Shouyi, who is 'Dao Xin Shouyi'. What Ma Kuxuan saw might be Ruan Xiu, the god of fire.
Or the water god Li Liu. What Gu Can saw might be the handwriting of Song Jixin, or the finishing touch of Zhao Yao. What Ruan Xiu saw might be the handwriting of Chen Ping'an or Liu Xianyang in Mu Ping Lane. There is only one thing that is certain, no matter who sees it
It’s not my own handwriting.”
Daozu smiled and said: "When you have determined something in your mind, you will constantly look for reasons and arguments to support your understanding. Kiln workers, butchers, workmen, carpenters, woodcutters looking for firewood, and fishermen looking for fish are all just because of their skills.
, each is different, so when looking at the same world, each will have its own emphasis."
Chen Ping'an frowned and asked tentatively: "Those words, are they similar to Red Candle Town? It's like a confluence of long rivers of time. So anyone can be the one who wrote the words, and at the same time, no one can be the one who wrote the words?"
Daozu answered the question, "The reason why Qingtong Tianjun set up this ban is to prevent you young people from working too hard on your future cultivation path. Of course, I am more worried that after the sky of Lizhu Cave was shattered and took root on the ground, I lost a
Without the barrier to isolate the secrets of heaven, the younger generation will go out to travel one after another, and clues about the One will be exposed prematurely."
Concerning the direction of the long river of time, it is a big taboo, and those who practice Taoism must explore and explore it themselves.
Daozu smiled and said, "Can you answer the previous question now?"
Chen Ping'an subconsciously turned his head and glanced in the direction of Mud Bottle Alley.
Walking from the alley to the drug store, if you have money to buy medicine, you will still be light-footed and have no money in your pocket in windy, snowy weather and muddy roads. The same journey, even if the spring flowers are blooming all the way, will make you staggering and exhausted.
.
Why is this so? It is due to the state of mind. The Dharma does not arise alone, but arises in accordance with the environment. Traveling through mountains and rivers, but not muddy and muddy, this is what Buddhism calls "excluding one's mind but not getting rid of things". What's more, my husband also specially commented that "the human heart is in danger, the Tao mind is only
The word "micro".
When I was young, when it came to making porcelain, the most important thing I learned was nothing more than four words: one can master it with ease. Whatever the heart desires, the hand can transform it.
Chen Ping'an said: "I don't have to wander around the streets alone just to find a copper coin on the ground, and I don't have to wait for other houses to open. I don't think it's hard at all."
Daozu smiled and asked, "Have you ever picked up money?"
Chen Pingan said with a smile: "I actually picked up a few."
In the night when they were helping people to get water, a child was lying on a field ridge with his legs crossed and chewing grass roots. The stars were shining brightly above his head. The child held high a copper coin he had picked up on the ground during the day.
Daozu raised his hand, pointed at his head, and then at his heart, "A person's rationality is a collection of acquired knowledge, and the paths we have opened up ourselves. Our sensibility is innate and comes from
The heart, the heart is the official organ of the monarch, from which the divine power emerges. Unfortunately, the heart is burdened by human beings and things, and the heart is a servant of form. Therefore, if you practice practice and talk about a thousand ways and ten thousand, you can't get around the word "heart" in the end."
