The old Taoist priest glanced around and arranged soundproofing spells. Then he put away his ever-changing wretched smile, with admiration in his eyes. After filling himself a glass of wine, he said: "I have met countless monks in my life, but like this
You are the first to enter the human world and realize enlightenment through Buddhist cultivation methods!"
Wang Yuan didn't say anything, his mind was calm and he didn't waver. He looked at the old Taoist priest and replied: "Senior, I was joking. I'm just trying to settle a cause and effect."
If someone misunderstood the old Taoist priest's straight eyes, he would definitely think that there was something wrong with him. He smiled and said, "I want to help you, so I took you to the casino. Do you know why?"
Wang Yuan's eyes flashed with Rui Mong, and he said in a deep voice: "Why."
The old Taoist priest was about to speak, but he rolled his eyes, looked at the delicious dishes on other tables, patted his belly, and said with a smile: "You see, I have been with you for a long time, and the food in my stomach has been digested long ago, and I can't even speak.
Gained strength."
Wang Yuan showed a mysterious smile, lined up a row of silver and threw it on the table. He then stood up and clasped his fists at the old Taoist priest and said, "Senior, eat slowly. I'll go back first." With that, he turned around and left.
After Wang Yuan left, the old Taoist priest looked sideways out of the window and saw Wang Yuan walking slowly on the street, his eyes shining, and he murmured: "You are really stubborn. Isn't it just a meal?"
I won’t eat anymore, huh.”
With a wave of his sleeves, the silver on the table disappeared, and the old Taoist priest walked out of the tavern in a hurry.
When Wang Yuan returned to the alley, the medicine shop, tavern, and clothing store had already welcomed customers, but only Wang Yuan's "Pinshengju" had no one. But Wang Yuan didn't care, opened the door and left
Go in.
As soon as he stepped forward, the wretched figure of the old Taoist priest appeared and said with a smile: "You are very shrewd, but your business is a mess. Let's do this. Your first business will be with me. You will appraise it for me."
How about this thing?"
The old Taoist priest followed Wang Yuan to the stone table in the yard and sat down, holding a white jade dice in his hand, which was as big as the normal dice in the casino.
The old Taoist priest put the dice on the table, but Wang Yuan was indifferent and just stared at him with interest. The old Taoist priest who kept looking turned red and muttered: "Look at what I am doing, look at the dice!"
"This is a deal. If you don't take out the money, how can I appraise it for you?" Wang Yuan said with a faint smile.
"You!" The old Taoist priest glared. He had always received benefits in his life, but had never suffered a loss. Today, he was teased by Wang Yuan. But the more the old Taoist priest looked at Wang Yuan, the more interesting he became, so he took out a piece of silver.
They threw it next to the dice together and shouted: "Hurry up!"
It is impossible to say that Wang Yuan is not interested in that dice. Just from the calm aura emanating from the dice, you can conclude that it must be a good thing!
Although he has no cultivation level, his eyes and eyes are still there. Wang Yuan has seen many treasures and has developed a pair of discerning eyes.
He picked up the dice and held it in his hand. It looked light and flimsy, but in fact it was like a piece of divine iron. The numbers engraved on the six sides of the dice made Wang Yuan squint, and they were all "six"! A faint brilliance circulated, disappearing and appearing.
Some of the lines are extremely weird.
"This object is a magic weapon. Its lowest quality is an earth spirit weapon. I don't know its specific function, but the mysterious patterns on it should be formations. It seems to be an identity verification, just like the jade slips of the sect. I don't know where this junior is.
Is that wrong?" Wang Yuan said calmly.
The old Taoist priest was smiling proudly. After hearing Wang Yuan's words, his face turned away, he looked attentively, and said in a deep voice: "Boy, you have already impressed me. You can make a guess based on the early stage of Yuan Ying's cultivation.
, I dare to assert that even those who are in the Nascent Soul Dzogchen and even monks in the Dongxu stage may not be able to see it."
"Actually, this junior knows a little about formations and is obsessed with them." Wang Yuan said truthfully.
"Array, you actually know the array? Then you are doing two things in cultivation, and you are not outstanding in any aspect!" The old Taoist priest said to Wang Yuan angrily.
"Juniors naturally know this, seniors don't need to remind you." Wang Yuan looked at the old Taoist priest and said.
At this time, the old Taoist priest was secretly surprised, "This guy is extremely confident in himself. It can be seen from his words that if he didn't believe in himself, he wouldn't say 'what's wrong', but 'what's right'. Perhaps
He is exactly the person I am looking for, I should try him again."
After thinking about this, the old Taoist priest said: "Yes, this object is an offensive magic weapon, and its name is 'Six Smooth Dice'. Since you are interested in it, I will give it to you, but you will have to pay it back in the future."
I."
The old Taoist priest said this inexplicably, but Wang Yuan had very few magic weapons. One more powerful magic weapon would improve his strength, so he immediately put it away. As for whether he will return it in the future, that is of course another matter.
It's over.
"Although you accept him, I still want to ask you, do you know why all six sides of the dice are 'six'?" The old Taoist priest continued to seduce Wang Yuan.
Wang Yuan shook his head, expressing his ignorance.
The old Taoist priest laughed and said: "When I encounter something difficult to choose, I will take out this dice and roll it three times in a row. If all are six, then I will do it. If not, then I will do it again."
Throw.”
Wang Yuan looked at the old Taoist strangely. If he had not shown any shrewd moments in the past few days when he met the old Taoist priest, then Wang Yuan would definitely think that the old man was a madman!
"How do you say this?" Wang Yuan said softly.
"Haha, this is why I took you to the casino. It's a pity that you haven't realized it, so I can only enlighten you." The old Taoist priest said with a smile.
Wang Yuan's eyes narrowed and he listened carefully. Maybe what the old Taoist said would be of some help to him.
"When the cultivation level reaches the Nascent Soul stage, if you want to break through, you need to have the 'Principal Source' of the corresponding realm, and my 'Principal Source' is a 'gamble'. Everything I think is a gamble, and it is
You must know better than me that I will definitely win." The old Taoist priest looked at Wang Yuan.
"When you were in the casino, you didn't have any gambling skills, but you kept winning. This is because your belief is that you will definitely win. I don't know what 'source' you have understood, but it must be the same as me."
The gambling games are somewhat connected." The old Taoist priest told the reason for Wang Yuan's winning streak, but Wang Yuan did not refute, which proved that the old Taoist priest was right.
"I think that Heaven is also setting up a gambling game, but he is smart and never throws the dice. It is us who throw the dice. If you win, you will think that Heaven is sympathizing with you. If you lose, you will think that it is your own fate.
Too miserable!" The old Taoist priest looked up at the bright sky and whispered to Wang Yuan, as if he did not dare to publicize it too much. Obviously, he was not a counter-cultivator and did not have such a counter-intention.
When Wang Yuan listened to the old Taoist priest's words, he had a feeling of enlightenment. Perhaps as the old Taoist priest said, the way of heaven plays with everyone. You thought you won this small bet, but the rule of the real big bet is to lose. You can't
Go beyond this rule!
Perhaps, this is fate, or it can be said that monks are in gambling all the time.
As long as there are monks, there will be gambling games, ranging from gambling on life to gambling on a piece of spiritual stone.
The old Taoist priest's dice is really interesting, with six faces exactly the same. He set rules for himself, as long as he throws six sixes, he will do what he wants to do, and the result of every bet will be a win! Even if the law of heaven is not the same, he will do what he wants to do.
I can't interfere with your winning or losing. If your cultivation progresses all the way, your "Principal Source" will be terrifying and your strength will be tyrannical. This is the strongest "Principal Source" among the three thousand avenues!
"Hey, my mouth is dry. Do you have any wine? Let me continue." Seeing that Wang Yuan was deep in thought, the old Taoist priest took the opportunity to ask.
Wang Yuan was deep in thought, took out the jade purification bottle, filled a wine flask half-heartedly, and threw it to the old Taoist priest.
"Oh?" The old Taoist priest stared straight at the jade purification bottle and exclaimed in surprise: "Your treasure is very good, very good!"
Then, the old Taoist priest took a delicious sip of the fruit wine, his eyes widened in an instant, he took another big sip, and then made a delicious sound.
"Sss... good wine!"
The old Taoist priest drank several glasses of wine in a row, his face turned red, and the tip of his nose was extremely red, and he added: "To nourish the mountains and rivers and let them flow freely is actually a gambling game. It is just a gamble with the sky and the earth, and a gamble with the way of heaven.
You bet with yourself. A monk spends his life struggling with gambling, but he doesn't know that the outcome has already been decided, and we can only decide when to accept it."
Wang Yuan's state of contemplation is getting heavier and heavier. This is another kind of research on the "source of Taoism". The old Taoist priest is deliberately trying to embarrass him! If he does not refute what the old Taoist priest said, then his Taoism will be doubted and his realm will be doubted.
It’s unstable and bottlenecks appear, but it’s no good!
Wang Yuan glanced at the old Taoist priest and said coldly: "The gambling game you mentioned does exist. I admit this. But..." The topic changed and Wang Yuan slowly took a sip of wine, "But you know the gambling game.
The result will definitely be defeat, and if you lose, you will die. After all, you cannot escape the battle between life and death!"
"Huh!?" The red face of the old Taoist priest disappeared instantly, and he suddenly woke up. He looked at Wang Yuan blankly, murmuring to himself and repeating Wang Yuan's words.
For a long time, the old Taoist priest was immersed in Wang Yuan's words, and Wang Yuan was not in a good mood, his back was soaked with cold sweat, and his thoughts were fighting, regardless of his cultivation level.
Suddenly, the old Taoist priest took out another same dice from his arms and threw it on the table, three times in a row, three sixes, which is a good number in the mortal world and a good result for the old Taoist priest.
"Haha, as expected, I have won again. Boy, I have never been defeated in my life. You, you just tied with me. Don't be complacent. Get the wine quickly!" The old Taoist priest's expression turned back to a wretched look.
, he said, changing the subject. But there was a look of shock in his eyes.
In fact, Wang Yuan was also very grateful to the old Taoist priest. After all, tempering one's mind can only make it stronger and strengthen one's mind in disguise.
