As the saying goes, it is best to enjoy the shade under a big tree.
But when Fuxi raised his head and looked at the leaves one after another, and heard the sound of rustling in the breeze, his heart sank.
Accompanying Nuwa, I walked through mountains, rivers, and sections of road.
Fuxi knew that the doubts in his sister's heart had not diminished at all during this journey.
On the contrary, because I have never received what I want, the doubts and confusions are gradually accumulating deeper and deeper.
"It would be great if the coolness of this green shade could really ease the fire of doubt in my sister's heart."
As this thought emerged, Fuxi heard Nuwa sitting aside, holding a teacup in her hand, speaking slowly.
"After the three Taoist brothers opened the sky, did they ever feel that their hearts were lacking?"
"Fellow Taoist Nuwa, why do you ask this?"
Upon hearing this, the Supreme Lord's eyes moved. Yuanshi and Tongtian on the side were also looking at each other, thoughtfully in their hearts.
"Before Nuwa came here, she visited the Witch Clan, where she learned about the method of refining the heart."
As Nuwa slowly explained, especially after knowing that the Witch Clan was actually doing all kinds of seemingly outrageous things as she said at the beginning, the Supreme Lord's expression became quite unnatural.
"I didn't expect that what was just a casual suggestion at the beginning would actually cause changes in the entire Wu clan."
I can't tell whether I should be proud of this feeling or whether I should feel dumbfounded, but at least I feel happy.
Along with this, the regret of the previous failure in alchemy also disappeared without a trace.
Especially, from Nuwa's narration, when the Supreme Leader saw that the Wu Clan had embarked on a new path, he felt more of an expectation to see what happened.
I must examine my mind three times, so I can follow the path.
"According to Taoist friend Nuwa, the lack of heart that Hou Yi said that day was because he had nothing to rely on.
However, from Yuanshi's point of view, it is not a bad thing to have a shortcoming in your heart."
After Nuwa finished describing the cause and effect, Yuan Shi gently put down the teacup in his hand and said calmly before the Supreme Master could speak.
"If the heart is lacking, it will not be incomplete. Where does this good thing that Taoist brother talks about come from?"
Hearing this, Nuwa frowned and asked.
“When you know the shortcomings in your heart, you already understand what perfection is, and you also know where to find the way forward.
What's wrong with this?"
Yuan Shi said with a smile.
"But if there is a flaw in the heart, it will always be in the process of being unable to be perfected. In this case, wouldn't it be easy for someone to take advantage of it and fall into a cage forever, unable to escape?"
"Fight with the sky, the joy is endless; fight with the earth, the joy is endless; fight with the heart, the joy is even more endless."
Facing Nuwa's gaze, Yuan Shi, who had a peaceful face, used the calmest words to express an extremely strong intention of fighting.
Such words made Fuxi on the side feel shocked when he looked at the elegant and easy-going Yuan Shi.
"When you know the lack in your heart, you will continue to search for it, and in the search, you will find all kinds of fun.
If we really reach the so-called perfect state from the beginning, will we already be in another kind of shortcoming?"
Looking at the thoughtful Nuwa, Yuan Shi chuckled.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, along the way, I have seen many creatures from the ancient world. Have you ever seen the so-called perfection in them?"
"Never."
Nuwa shook her head and continued.
"Actually, this is also the second question I want to ask, what kind of creature is a real creature?
Since the three Taoist brothers have opened heaven, they have transcended eternity.
In the heaven and earth above eternity, have the three Tao brothers ever created real creatures?"
"Why do you, Taoist Nuwa, have to be obsessed with real living beings?"
As these words fell, Tongtian seemed to be unable to bear it, so he took over the conversation and spoke slowly.
"In the ancient world, the so-called creatures are creatures that know life and death and have wisdom.
However, this is obviously not the creature in the mind of Taoist Nuwa.
So, what is a creature?"
Looking at Nuwa's searching eyes, Tongtian pointed at the big tree in front of everyone and said slowly.
"For example, this tree is vast and strong at the moment, and its branches and leaves can easily support a green shade.
For this tree, growing taller and stronger and being able to withstand wind and rain is the meaning of its existence.
If you know this meaning and keep pursuing it, then the tree will have a soul, and this soul will be the soul of the living being."
As he finished speaking, Tongtian stretched out his hand again, pointing to the green grass ahead.
"It's like the grass, although it was crushed under the feet when the two Taoist friends stepped forward, but it stood up again after the Taoist friends left.
Just like the mountain wind blowing at this moment, the weak green grass forcibly bows its head.
But have these two fellow Taoists ever really bowed their heads when they saw that piece of grass?"
In the midst of these words, Nuwa and Fuxi looked in the direction pointed by Tongtian.
I saw a piece of green grass, bowing its head when the wind rose, and then rising again after the wind fell.
During this period of ups and downs, the grass in front of me was full of vitality, and I felt a kind of joy from the heart in my eyes.
"The so-called creatures, even if they are weak, should have the will to be unyielding.
Because of this unyielding existence, even if there are towering mountains, a vast sea, and an endless sky in front of him, his heart cannot be concealed."
Facing the eyes of Nuwa and Fuxi, Tongtian smiled slightly.
"So-called living beings, even if they are born with deficiencies, can move from death to life, from weak to strong as long as they never stop."
As Tongtian's words fell, Yuanshi on the side spoke with a smile.
After the two of them finished speaking, everyone looked at the Supreme Being and heard the Supreme Being speak at this moment.
"The so-called living beings should be able not to be happy with things and not sad with themselves. Even if they can control everything, they should be able to move forward slowly in humility."
Nuwa is gone.
After resting in Kunlun Mountain for a hundred years, under the silent protection of Fuxi, he once again embarked on an unknown journey.
"Do you think Taoist Nuwa can find the answer in her heart?"
Under the setting sun, watching the two figures drifting away, the Supreme Being put down the teacup in his hand and spoke slowly.
"As long as her footsteps never stop, one day she will find the answer in her heart."
Recalling all the things he had done in the Qingzhou world and experiencing the transition from death to life, he spoke without any hesitation.
"It's just that, even though I've been discussing Taoism for a hundred years, I still can't tell what the path ahead for fellow Taoist Nuwa will be."
"It doesn't matter what kind of path it is. What's important is that when this Taoist friend Nuwa truly realizes the Tao, this ancient world will inevitably become more wonderful because of his Tao."
Tongtian said with a smile.
The Supreme Being was not surprised at all by the affirmative words of his two younger brothers.
After all, even he wanted to see what kind of path this Taoist Nuwa, who once had the power of spiritual creation in Zixiao Palace, could take.
Don't ask where the road ahead is, it's the end of the world just follow your heart.
In addition to Nuwa, those who seek the way in this ancient world also have guidance from the western world.
However, unlike Nuwa, who walked the world to find the way.
On the road that Jie Yin walked, because of the compassion in his heart, wherever he went, there would be Buddha's light shining on him.
In this Buddha's light, the living beings who were originally fighting, with the shining of the Buddha's light, moved from fighting each other to peace.
Until this day, on top of the mountain together, he opened his eyes.
I saw two blurry figures in the sea of clouds, gradually moving towards reality.
"I am a poor Taoist. I have met two fellow Taoists."
Looking at the two people approaching, Jie Yin clasped his hands and said.
"I've seen Brother Jie Yin."
Coming closer, Fuxi and Nuwa spoke.
"Where are you two fellow Taoists going?"
As he finished speaking, Jieyin glanced at Fuxi and then his eyes fell on Nuwa.
"I came by chance and would like to discuss the Tao with Brother Jie Ying."
"good!"
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Jie Yin's face.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is a hundred years.
As a ray of morning sun rose, Jie Yin looked at the two empty seats across from him and walked further and further into the distance with a smile.
Thousands of years later, in front of a river that was rushing endlessly.
"Sister, after searching for the Tao for a hundred thousand years, have you ever figured it out now?"
On the bank of the river, Fuxi looked at Nuwa, who had been sitting here for tens of thousands of years. As her eyes gradually regained clarity, he asked with concern.
Since their farewells, they have also visited many ancient creatures, many of whom were fellow Taoists in the Zixiao Palace.
But as time goes by, the time for this kind of discussion has become shorter and shorter, until we reach the river in front of us, where we have stayed until now.
"I understand. Thank you brother for always protecting Nuwa all these years."
Looking at Fuxi's worried look, Nuwa smiled brightly.
"I am your brother, so these things are taken for granted, but I don't know if the way my sister is thinking about can be achieved now, and what kind of way is it?"
"This way is called mending the sky."
Nuwa said solemnly.
"Mending the sky?"
Hearing this, Fuxi subconsciously looked at the sky at this moment, with a look of astonishment in his eyes.
He thought that Nuwa's way should be related to living beings.
But when I heard the word "Bu Tian", I couldn't help but have a big question mark in my heart.
"What is mending the sky?"
Thinking of all the things he had done with Nuwa over the years, Fuxi couldn't help but ask again.
"Heaven and earth are the places where living beings rely for survival, but this heaven and earth is also the biggest prison for living beings.
The so-called mending the sky is my sister's hope that the creatures living in this world can one day break out of this prison and enjoy transcendence and freedom.
But in that detachment, one can always keep one's heart in mind, understand compassion, know compassion, and be able to restore peace and tranquility to the sky and the earth.
This is mending the sky."
"Can there be such a creature?"
After hearing this, Fuxi, who knew that Nuwa's ways had never changed, felt relieved but also had a little more questions.
Even the Three Pure Ones who created the world, and even the great powers they met along the way who had been promoted to the Real Realm, had never truly transcended the world.
What's more, he and Nuwa still haven't transcended heaven and earth.
"If it can be done, it can be done."
Facing Fuxi's gaze, Nuwa said with hope.
"Perhaps, compared to our prehistoric creatures, they are weak, even weaker than most of the creatures in the prehistoric world.
But, I will give them a heart, a fearless and selfless heart.
Even if this mind is defective at the beginning, it is a mind that can be continuously supplemented and perfected.
With this heart, even if you are weak, you will have to go through more hardships than receiving Taoist brother.
But as long as they keep moving forward, one day they will be able to overcome difficulties one after another and escape one snare after another.
Then, amidst all the difficulties, he became extraordinary."
"Such a creature will definitely be wonderful."
As Nuwa's words slowly fell, Fuxi's mind couldn't help but think of all the ancient creatures he had met over the past countless years.
I couldn't help but think of what Taishang, Yuanshi and Tongtian said about living beings and thoughts when we were in Kunlun Mountain. I also thought of the guidance I met on an unknown mountain.
All these are like streams with no boundaries or origins, but they finally converge into the boundless sea at this moment.
As this thought emerged, Fuxi looked at Nuwa in front of him.
Although Nuwa's figure at this time was no longer the same as before, at that moment when countless thoughts came together, her figure began to grow taller and taller than the sky.
"By the way, there is the most important thing."
At this moment, Fuxi saw a cunning look in Nuwa's eyes and spoke softly.
"Such a creature should have the qualities of an elder brother and be able to protect the one he loves at all costs.
You can also strengthen your faith in the midst of boredom and explore and study the rules of the vast world."
"Sister, are you planning to create a new race?"
Hearing this, Fuxi's mind was shocked and he spoke in astonishment.
"Not bad, a brand new race."
Nuwa said full of expectation.
"Perhaps, Nuwa at this moment cannot give them a powerful soul like the countless races in the world, or a body that can destroy mountains and seas.
I can't make them born holy, but I will give them this body that all the spirits in the world long for.
The shape of this body is like an innate Tao body.
I want them, even if they are weak in stature, to still be like the great god Pangu, with their heads in the sky and their feet on the ground, standing proudly in the sky and the earth. They are born like this."
"Born this way?"
As he finished speaking, Fuxi saw Nuwa in front of him. The moment she spoke, immeasurable light bloomed from her body.
As soon as this light came out, everything changed immediately.
After Fuxi saw everything in front of him clearly, the rushing river had disappeared without a trace, and only the endless vastness appeared in front of him.
"Sister, creating a clan is no small matter."
Looking at the confusion in front of him, implying Nuwa's upcoming actions, Fuxi's eyes once again showed a strong look of worry.
"Even the three tribes back then and the ten thousand tribes today all came into being as the passage of time, using their original power to contaminate the creatures of the ancient world.
But even so, they were not born with an innate Taoist body.
Sister, why bother?"
Before Fuxi could finish his words, he was interrupted by Nuwa's smile.
In that smile, Fuxi saw Nuwa taking a step towards the endless vastness in front of her.
Buzz!
"This race has never existed before, because it does not exist.
Because, for any living being in the prehistoric world.
There has never been any race or creature that has an innate Tao body like the great god Pangu before the birth of consciousness.
But starting from today, this clan will exist, coming from nothing."
As she said these words, Nuwa stretched out her hand towards the vastness in front of her.
In this finger, Fuxi saw a little spiritual light appear in the endless chaos.
Although this spiritual light is small, as soon as it is born, it roars away into the endless vastness.
"Brother, there is no need to worry. Since my sister can open the sky, she can also create this clan. Even the chaos and vastness cannot stop her."
