Chapter 27: The World Is Limited, The Mind Is Infinite
Chapter 27 The world is limited but the heart is infinite
"You are not a fish, you know how happy a fish is."
"Sir, if you are not a fish, how do you know that this fish doesn't like to throw itself into a trap?"
Boom!
As these two sentences emerged and continued to roar in his mind, Jiang Jun's mind was shaken.
Buzz!
In an instant, the world in front of him seemed to have stopped.
Following the white silk thread, Jiang Jun's eyes fell on the red carp.
Looking into those clear eyes, as the fish tail swayed, ripples stirred the calm lake surface at this moment.
At this moment, Jiang Jun's mind was spreading in all directions along with the ripples on the green lake.
Bo!
There was a soft sound, and a bubble on the lake exploded at this moment.
Boom!
At this moment, Jiang Jun felt that the world in front of him was shattered.
As the day turned upside down and I was dizzy, one picture after another continued to emerge at this moment.
In this derivation, one after another familiar yet unfamiliar experiences emerged in his mind.
In the picture, he is a red carp unwilling to survive in the green lake.
In order to escape his fate, he fell into the hands of fishermen and ended his life.
When he woke up again, he became a poor fisherman again. He accidentally discovered a green lake and made a living by fishing for carp.
The carps in the Bi Lake are extremely spiritual and cannot be caught by ordinary fishing nets.
But no matter how spiritual he is, after all, under his careful design, it became his source of livelihood and helped him get rid of poverty.
But just as the fish cannot escape his fishing net, as a fisherman, he cannot escape the bullying of the bully.
In the end, he still suffered from poverty, and on a rainy night, he died on a fishing boat that was hit by the wind.
He was unwilling to live in poverty all his life.
Then the scene changed and he became a soldier on the frontier in this life.
After fighting again and again, in the struggle to survive again and again, he finally became a high-ranking general.
He stood tall in the court and established the powerful Ao family.
He covers the sky with his hands, and anyone who dares to disobey him will be suppressed by him, just like those bullies suppressed him as a fisherman back then.
But he never expected that there would be that stubborn scholar.
Not only did they reject his solicitation, but they also spent twenty years to unseat him.
He was unwilling to do so.
Why do you end up in such a situation when you cover the sky with only one hand?
All because the position of the supreme Dragon Emperor is not his.
As a result, he became the Great Luo Dragon Emperor who succeeded the new king.
He originally wanted to take control of the world, but at the court, the civil servants who were once relied upon by his father and the king were against him at every turn.
So, he demoted the civil servant again and again until he was demoted to a commoner and took charge of all the power.
But just when he thought he could flex his muscles, treacherous ministers took over inside the court, and aliens invaded outside the court.
Under the pressure of destroying the country, he finally had no choice but to welcome back the people he had driven away in a humiliating mood.
Seeing that the other party once again swept away the foreign tribes and purged the court, as the Great Luo Dragon Emperor, he was frightened and drove the minister away again.
"Why, why, I am the Dragon Emperor, but I am still controlled in every way."
Seeing the white-haired minister leaving calmly even after being expelled again, as the Dragon Emperor, he eventually died of illness on his bed.
"If there is an afterlife, I would also like to be that civil servant who sweeps the world."
Life after life, from a mere peddler to the heights of a temple, from the countryside to the throne of an emperor, no matter what your status is, you have no choice but to do so.
Family, friendship, money, desire for power, fame and wealth, even ambition, etc., everything seems beautiful, but in fact they are shackles one after another that are bound to the body.
Because of the existence of this shackles, no matter where you go or where you go, you can never be freed, let alone transcended.
Therefore, there are prisons everywhere between heaven and earth. Only by forgetting everything can you enjoy peace.
Just like the red carp in the lake, although they are ignorant, no matter how painful they are, they will be completely forgotten in the blink of an eye.
Just wave your red tail and you can swim freely in the blue lake.
So, why bother?
Why bother to go to that so-called broader world?
It is better to bite the hook than to throw yourself into the trap and enjoy the peace and freedom.
Because the seven emotions and six desires are hooks, and the thoughts are like nets.
Without these, there would be no such thing as falling into a trap.
Snapped!
Following a soft sound, a long thread was seen falling from the sky, falling into the lake and causing ripples, spreading in all directions.
"Fish, if you don't come now, when will you come?"
On the lake, a white-haired old man said slowly, "It's like the greatest peace in the world."
As these words fell, in the white-haired old man's eyes, he saw a red shadow slowly coming from the darkness in the unfathomable lake of his heart.
"The so-called detachment is the biggest joke. The hook is where the peace of mind lies."
As this thought emerges, one ripple after another ripples away from the fishhook to the surroundings of the inner lake.
In the ripples, the red tail showed its traces, and a red carp with golden scales on its eyebrows swam towards the place where the fishhook was.
The fishhook swayed lightly, the red tail swayed, and ripples appeared in all directions.
At this moment, the ripples of the water seemed to welcome each other, but also seemed to be the last resistance.
"Snapped!"
The carp opened its mouth and the silver hook entered its belly.
At this moment, the originally rippling lake surface suddenly stopped, and only a long white line stretched straight at this moment.
Under the water, a red carp raised its head, its eyes flashing.
"The heart lock evolved and I threw myself into a trap. Fellow Taoist Jun, it seems that I won this round."
On the water, the white-haired old man lowered his head, revealing his true appearance, looking at the red carp with a smile on his face and said.
"Fellow Taoist, you have been reincarnated with me for nearly a hundred times, do you only see shackles in your eyes?"
Under the water, the sound of red carp slowly sounded.
"As things have come to this, it is useless to say more. Fellow Taoist Jun, it is better to step into this peaceful place with peace of mind."
On the water, Rahu's avatar, which evolved into a heart lock, lifted the fishing rod.
In a moment, the red carp slowly left the water.
At the same time, streaks of black aura roared towards the red carp.
"You are not a fish. It is a pity that you know how happy a fish is."
At the moment when the red carp was lifted out of the water, as a voice came out, Luo Hu's clone only felt a blur in front of his eyes.
When he looked up again, he saw a white-haired old man sitting on the shore, but he himself had turned into the red carp that took the bait.
Luo Hu wanted to break free, but no matter how hard he tried to break free, he could not get rid of his current carp body.
The shackles that could be controlled at will turned into nothingness.
"How is it possible? What did you do?"
"The world is limited, the body is limited, and the creatures in this world are limited no matter how transcendent they are.
Since there are limitations, there are shackles everywhere, and fellow Taoists are no exception."
Hongjun said slowly.
"Since they are all shackles, how do you get rid of my demon heart?"
Luo Hu looked at the white-haired Hongjun and asked with an ugly expression.
"Because there are no shackles in my eyes, my heart is infinite."
White-haired Hongjun said slowly.
"Because it is infinite, everything in the world is transcendent."
