In just ten minutes, the large open space in front of the wooden house was used——
It is filled with densely packed wooden stools.
Near the central iron pot, there are four higher-end wooden chairs with backrests.
The firewood under the iron pot was burning brightly, and the red fire seemed to burn through the sky and the earth.
Perhaps it was because the firewood was moist and the white smoke was rising into the sky.
On both sides of the stone stove under the iron pot, there are two wide and long wooden tables, which are piled with various traditional Qingcheng tributes.
There were many people standing on both sides of the table.
In the middle of the open space, stood an old man wearing a black robe, leaning on a cane, and a circle of people sitting around him.
Ye Zhaoling counted. There were ten people sitting next to the old man. They were all men, women and children. Some of them were even under adulthood and were only a head taller than the wooden stool. But they were still crowded together and looked at the people in front of them respectfully.
An old man.
The old man in black robes, with a wide hood covering his entire head, held a cane in his hand, and the dark hood swept across the entire scene.
"Everyone, today, I will let you, Han Gao, argue with all my friends here!"
Han Gao?
Is this Han Gao?
Ye Zhaoling frowned. This old man undoubtedly had two brushes. His voice was like a loud bell, but his breath was as steady as Mount Tai. Two skinny arms stretched out from under his robe. He was at least eighty years old.
After saying that, he slowly leaned on the crutch in his hand and paced back and forth among the students who were listening devoutly to the lecture.
"Everyone, have you ever wondered what the world was like a thousand years ago?"
The old man asked as he walked. His voice was not loud, but it was enough to make everyone clearly understand where they were.
It was quiet for a moment, and soon a child answered: "The beginning of chaos, the beginning of the world. Everything in the world has aura, and this aura is the origin of life. As long as human beings cultivate a steady stream of aura, they will have longevity.
Life and immortality have become the most powerful existence among human beings.
However, it is not easy to cultivate more spiritual power, because spiritual power must rely on accumulation and devouring to break through the limit. Initially, humans only knew that the effect of cultivation could be achieved by devouring other people's spiritual power, but the spiritual power needed
The force mass is too huge.
This is the path of human cultivation. Of course, this is also the most dangerous step for human beings, because after absorbing other people's spiritual power, human beings may not be able to refine it, leading to going crazy or even exploding to death.
Later, human beings were almost extinct due to plunder and disputes. Countless immortals were born and established sects. They wrote many secret books and taught humans the method of cultivation, which is to extract things from daily food that can be absorbed and contain pure spiritual power.
Transform the spiritual energy naturally cultivated into your own spiritual power.
After humans absorb the spiritual energy of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, they will form a circulatory system in their bodies, dividing the spiritual energy contained in their bodies into two parts, and injecting them into different places respectively——
Heart and soul.”
"Yeah, not bad." The old man nodded.
"." A man continued: "All spiritual things have their own consciousness. The spirits in the world are all born from the energy of heaven and earth. They are born different and have abilities that transcend the ordinary..."
There are thousands of changes in the world, and they are endless and endless. Only through practice can we explore the truth and understand the mysteries of heaven and earth..."
"Not bad!" the old man encouraged.
"I remember that the ancestor's classics said that the lives of all living things are endless. They will not really die due to anything. After a long time, they will eventually wake up again at a specific time and start again.
Transformed into the spirit of all things!"
After listening to this man's words, the old man nodded slightly.
"very good!"
"Every more than a hundred years, the life of all things will have a chance to revive. If one day, the lost life revives again, it may give us the answer to whether gods really exist in this world!"
Hearing this, the old man tapped his cane, his voice a little excited.
"Then, are there really gods in this world?"
"This, this... I don't dare to confirm it, but my ancestor once said when he was dying that the life of all things is endless, and they will return to the place of origin of life one day. In this way, they can be regarded as
Real life!"
"There are immortals in the world, just like the mountain god of our Qingcheng Mountain, who ascended to immortality hundreds of years ago. As long as you practice with concentration, you may not be able to achieve enlightenment and become an immortal. It will be clear to you what the gods will be like at that time."
"..."
Below, everyone started talking one by one.
Even if they are not very talented or even have no talent, they rarely have a pious heart, and they naturally believe deeply in the words left by their ancestors.
The old man looked at the dense crowd under the stage with a happy smile on his face.
He glanced at the wooden house with his peripheral vision, and then looked up at the sky above him.
At the distant horizon, there is a golden full moon, emitting a soft and warm light, spreading over the entire Qingcheng Mountain.
It was a beautiful and quiet night.
Qingcheng Mountain is always like a bright pearl embedded in the vast world.
This is a beautiful illusion. For this Qingcheng, it is not as peaceful and peaceful as it seems on the outside.
It is hesitantly walking on the road to destruction.
There are no trees on this road, only green grass, wild flowers growing haphazardly, and some sparse bushes.
The atmosphere here seems extremely depressing and depressing, like a black and white canvas, with a pencil sketching out a lifeless and sad picture, making people feel despair and fear.
"Everything in the world has its own will when it is born in the world. When it is born in this world, it follows the laws of this world." The so-called life only exists in a certain moment and appears in front of you in a certain form.
Then left quietly.
It can't stay too long for any one thing.
So when you encounter something and need to make a choice, you must make a decision immediately.
Otherwise, if people hesitate, hesitate, and muddle along, they will eventually be stuck in the past, wrong choices, unachievable results, and unclear obsessions. Human beings are often counterattacked by this force throughout their lives.
, until the soul is lost.
And that's the case with Qingcheng Mountain right now.
On this blue land, everything turned into a withered and gray look, as if it had lost all vitality in an instant.
Even in this world, not many people know the true face of Qingcheng Mountain. Because there are tombs of gods and ancestors standing everywhere on it. Even at its feet, the ashes of their ancestors are buried, as well as
Junior brothers and sisters who have passed away one after another, and people who have been forgotten one after another.
The old man's deep voice slowly echoed through the empty mountain forest.
He tapped the crutch in his hand on the ground a few times, and then continued: "Buddhism talks about cause and effect; Taoism talks about 'the responsibilities of heaven'. There are cycles of heaven, and there are responsibilities for good and evil. There are gods and humans in the world.
, demons and monsters will also be born..."
"The things in this world are born from the spirits of all things and die from the bodies of all things. They also have spirits in life and flesh in death. Life and death are interdependent. And the beginning of life is conceived by the purest spiritual energy in the world.
.And these pure auras gradually deteriorate over the long years and continue to be nurtured...until they are finally reincarnated!"
"The founder left a message that all things in the world have spirituality, life, and will, and they are interdependent in life and death and will never fade!"
"However, if everything in this world has its own independent consciousness, and then its own selfishness, they all just want to take the benefits of the world for themselves; snatch the mouth of a mud swallow, sharpen the head of an iron needle, scrape the face of a golden Buddha and search carefully:
There are quails looking for peas in their crops, egrets splitting the meat from their legs, and mosquitoes eating fat from their bellies. They are greedy and violate the laws of nature. So, how can all things be immortal?"
As the old man spoke, his tone became more and more passionate.
He held the crutch tightly with both hands and his body tensed upright.
People seemed to be able to see a pair of cloudy eyes through the black hood, which were also shining with wisdom at this time.
