Chapter 176 Taking a light dance to reflect and cleanse the heart
The Cheng family is quite famous in the Frost Star Kingdom. It is a large family that has been passed down for thousands of years. From the perspective of the Frost Star Kingdom, it is also a first-rate family.
Chengjia's main business is transportation. It can be said that it is connected in all directions. Slightly bulkier goods must be transported by Chengjia. Rich and aristocratic families seem to have always had a unique way to survive. Chengjia has been ups and downs for thousands of years and has never failed. This is also its ability.
It has been three months since the Cheng manager enthusiastically invited us back to Cheng's home. Zuo Wuzhou's injury has not healed, and he has been lying in Cheng's home for two months, and he can barely move. Fortunately, Cheng Qingwu and
As he was in charge, no one blamed him for the time being.
It has been three months since I came here, and my injuries are recovering slowly but resolutely. I have been lying down all the time, and it is inevitable to reflect. Ever since I set foot on the soul cultivation path, I have rarely been able to be calm and have a lot of free time to think.
when.
Zuo Wuzhou simply took advantage of this opportunity to seriously reflect and look at it! After going back and forth, he calmed down and understood. As expected, he gradually gained a lot of insights.
"Sure enough, sometimes just practicing hard won't work. You'll only get the best of your abilities."
"It's really uncomfortable to lie still. Even if you can only move a little bit, it's good."
"Lie down like this. Life would be worse than death."
The days of lying down and unable to move made Zuo Wuzhou very uncomfortable at first. But gradually, he became more and more aware of the relaxation of movement and stillness.
After lying down for three months without being able to move at all, it was as uncomfortable as death. Zuo Wuzhou realized something. He repeatedly accumulated his energy, and the energy that was originally tense could be said to be sharp.
In the past, Zuo Wuzhou looked exactly like that peerless sword, with evil energy as strong as blood energy.
A sword without a scabbard. Its edge is revealed. It is like the dragon out of the sea. It is like a dragon without a chain. It is like a sword that is indestructible and indestructible. It has a light that is difficult to look directly at, a majestic and shocking courage, but it is too sharp and too dazzling.
Being too showy can hurt others and yourself.
Watching the ceiling and the roof, Zuo Wuzhou gradually recovered from the anxiety of life being worse than death: "It seems that I still need to practice more to control my emotions. Not only to control my emotions, but also to control myself from being driven by my emotions.
, doing meaningless things.”
Thinking about it carefully and reflecting sincerely, the longer he lay there, the more impurities in his mind were precipitated, and the calmer he became, the more transparent he became: "Going to Chongyun. Now that I think about it, I have actually done a lot.
meaningless things
"Sometimes, a straight line may not be the shortest way. Sometimes, a more curved route may not lead to the destination." Zuo Wuzhou looked back at the past with a normal heart, and gained more insights: "I was in Chongyun, and I should have walked through it.
Straight."
"My sharp edge is too revealing, and it is easy to attract people's jealousy. If not, how could I have conquered Dongcheng?" He secretly nodded: "I am too straight, and I lack some flexibility. In this way, I am also a big problem."
"It should be noted that many things often cannot be accomplished overnight. If you need to be flexible, you need to make some adjustments." Zuo Wuzhou pondered: "However, flexibility does not mean being slick. It does not mean swallowing one's anger. Going straight often equals getting into trouble. At this time, it is time to be flexible.
."
"However, if you blindly adapt, you will lose yourself. Isn't it just like drawing a sword to kill someone? When it is time to draw the sword, draw the sword and take out the person's head. On weekdays, why not put the sword in the sheath and temporarily reduce the sharpness?
."
"Whether you are cultivating your soul or dealing with people, you should all respond to one sentence. There must be a balance of yin and yang. Blind netting will not succeed, and blind softness will not succeed."
Sitting cross-legged on the stone slab next to the river bank, Zuo Wuzhou has been watching the rushing river for several hours. He thought thoughtfully: "It's not like this river. The water flows downward and remains the same, never changing due to the trampling of others.
Naturally, Zuo Wuzhou has never been able to be as soft as water in his life. He is not that soft. What he sees and wants to learn is the river's true self that never changes and remains the same.
"It's like, no matter how hot the sun is, night will eventually fall." Zuo Wuzhou laughed: "I understand these principles of life, and don't use them to change my nature. Whatever my nature is, I should be like that. Life is nothing more than that.
If I can live my wonderful life, how can I live the wonderful life of others?"
Changing his nature is not Zuo Wuzhou. He is just trying to learn some experience, understand some principles and correct the path he has taken in the Battle of Sanmiao.
"When I first started cultivating, I was not so extreme. It seems that there are subtle changes, and these changes are the most terrifying. Soul cultivation is indeed lonely, and loneliness can easily lead to extremes." Zuo Wuzhou nodded: "Dong
Zong's matter could have been a reminder to me, but I had no time to think about it at that time, so I realized this truth today. It's better to be late than not."
Originally, what happened to Dong Zong could wake him up from his extreme behavior in the soul path. He smiled: "I am for the soul path, for my relatives and friends, and for me. Since I have no other thoughts besides this, how can I gradually control the world?
people as enemies
"The so-called enemy should not be like this. Anyone who draws a knife on me is my enemy. Of course the enemy should be killed. But if you kill too many innocent people, you will kill indiscriminately." In the final analysis, the attitude and psychology are extreme and extreme.
"The road to the soul is long. If I can't stand the loneliness, why should I seek the Tao? If I can't maintain my true intention in loneliness, even if I seek the Tao, then Zuo Wuzhou will no longer be me." Zuo Wuzhou dialed with his left hand.
Move the cool river water.
In fact, Zuo Wuzhou's extremeness was the seed planted in Fengwei Sect for ten years. After all, he was too young and couldn't control it for a while. He practiced alone and lonely, and his character inevitably changed gradually. Such subtle changes in character are unheard of.
He, even a strong man who has lived for hundreds of years, can easily change drastically.
A strong person in Bu Duoduo often loses his character in the process of practicing alone. Since ancient times, many strong people have gone crazy.
"In the future, I need to return to my original intention, kill without killing indiscriminately, be ferocious without being brutal, be fierce without thinking twice. Be firm without being blunt, be tenacious without being stubborn, miss the point without being high-profile, be heroic without being arrogant.
"
Bit by bit, correct your past extreme actions, and reflect on your own behavior bit by bit.
The three-month period of recuperation was a rare journey of purification in the midst of glitz, which slowly purged away the extremes and extremes in the mind.
.
Just as Heaven is about to entrust this person with a great responsibility, he must first strain his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, and deplete his body. His behavior will mess up his actions, so tempting his heart and forbearance will benefit him beyond what he can do.
With Zuo Yidou's words and deeds, he has understood since he was a child that he can only rely on his own hard work to achieve everything. With the ten years of ups and downs of Fengwei Sect, he has been able to cultivate his mind and will not to be influenced by external things, refine his glitz, and purify his mind.
, to achieve today’s disposition..
Without many setbacks as training, without many fierce battles as training. How could we have the great enlightenment in our hearts and be close to the Tao today?
At this point, after a disastrous teaching, Zuo Wuzhou finally got through an extremely dangerous mental drift, strengthened his heart to seek the truth, and returned to the right track of his true nature. In the end, no matter his mind or heart, he was no longer hindered. Success.
The realm of Mahayana.
Chengqingwu is like a graceful colorful butterfly, fluttering around, smiling like a flower: "So you are here, causing me to look for you everywhere. Your injury is not healed yet. Don't get soaked in the water."
"Here we go again. How can I convince her not to keep Wu telling stories about assassins?" Zuo Wuzhou was helpless.
"I'm different." Cheng Qingwu giggled, removed her embroidered shoes, and stepped into the river with a pair of jade feet: "It's fun, it's really fun. It's a pity that you can't play. Hehe."
When I dance lightly and splash the water, I feel like a colorful butterfly dancing on the river.
.
After playing for a while, Cheng Qingwu Jiaojiao panted, ran ashore, sat next to her, her delicate little face was half tilted to the left, and she said naively: "I'm so tired, you don't even play with me. You have to help me wipe it."
sweat."
It is the red and pink green moth, as smooth as fat and as pink as greasy. The fine beads of sweat leached out from the delicate skin, and the breath is like orchid. It is precisely the beauty that is more beautiful than flowers. The jade face is bright and spring red.
For a moment, Zuo Wuzhou's heart suddenly shrank and froze, feeling unspeakable nervousness, and almost suffocating. Suddenly you remembered a sentence: "A beautiful woman in the autumn water shines like a spring flower."
Gather your mind and carefully wipe off her sweat particles.
Cheng Qing Wu opens her teeth slightly and smiles on her cheeks: "You are so kind!"
It's hard to tell whether it was because he was disliked by others or because he didn't care for others. So, the third manager of Chengjia's village asked Zuo Wuzhou to work in the kitchen. As a result, he was assigned the job of chopping firewood.
Assigning Mr. Wu to chop firewood is really a great idea.
Zuo Wuzhou shed a drop of sweat and was in great pain. He looked at his right arm and said, "I can't even use the strength to chop firewood. It seems that my right arm is temporarily disabled. Even if there is "Five Elements of Heaven and Earth", it is only half and half.
The probability of recovery is high. You need to re-train your left hand."
I used my left hand to perform it. It was extremely awkward at first, but I could barely do some normal things with my left hand, which eliminated a certain sense of awkwardness. I made up my mind to repair my right arm at the same time, and also practiced hard on my left hand. Naturally, I had to maintain it all the time.
Live. Therefore, I switched to my left hand to chop firewood, and the efficiency was actually higher.
"Well, I'm not used to just the straight and straight chops. It seems that if you want to make your left hand as flexible as your right hand, you will have to practice hard often." He sweated a little, and his injuries had not healed yet.
There was pain everywhere due to trauma, so it was naturally difficult to exert force.
Cheng Qing Wu was like a deer stepping on the clouds, running over happily and angrily, shouting angrily: "Who asked him to come to the kitchen to work, who agreed, who do you think you are, he is mine. Lin Zhou,
Come back with me. From today on, you follow me."
Everyone in the kitchen was shocked: "Little miss!"
Cheng Qingwu dragged Zuo Wuzhou, who was silent, and ran straight back to the house. He pressed Zuo Wuzhou on the bed and whispered: "Don't do those coolies. They are not done by assassins at all. You can recover well and wait until you are injured."
OK, teach me how to be an assassin."
Zuo Wuzhou frowned secretly and reluctantly responded: "Okay."
"Wait a minute!" Cheng Qingwu's eyes were pierced, and she held a red silk scarf, and the fragrance suddenly hit her face. Holding the silk scarf, she carefully and tenderly held it on Zuo Wuzhou's face, and said coquettishly: "Don't move,
Someone is helping you wipe your sweat!"
There was no sound in the room for a while, but it seemed that only the thick and shallow breaths were intertwined with each other, just like water and milk blending together, creating a trace of charm.
Zuo Wuzhou suddenly couldn't bear it. He could clearly feel the fat-like skin on his fingertips on his face. For a moment, he suddenly felt a bang. He immediately gathered his thoughts and said: "You!"
"You hate it. I'm moving around and not wiping your sweat." Cheng Qingwu was annoyed. She turned around and sat next to her. She said angrily: "I'm wiping your sweat for you. What else do you want?"
Sample."
"It seems wrong, very wrong!" Zuo Wuzhou took several deep breaths to calm down his restless heart. He felt a little hot and was shocked. He thought to himself: "What's wrong with me? Is it because of illness?"
?”
Chengqing Wu couldn't help but feel lonely. She endured it for a while and then looked back: "Idiot, you always wear black clothes. Why? Do you like black very much? Black doesn't look good at all. It has to be matched with other colors to look beautiful."
"Why don't you change into a white suit?" Cheng Qingwu looked at him carefully. She found that he was very handsome, with a heroic spirit between his eyebrows, but the black clothes made him look a bit old-fashioned, and he didn't look like a young master from a troubled world at all. In her heart
As soon as he moved, he jumped up and said: "Why don't I give you a white shirt, you will definitely look good in it."
"Thank you for your kindness, I only like black." Zuo Wu
"Come on, show me something in white, just take a look." Cheng Qingwu grabbed him and said coquettishly, "Just for once, okay?"
"No!" the reply was extremely decisive.
In a blink of an eye, it’s time for the warm spring breeze again.
The head of the family had a free day on a stormy day, so he decided to come and see his daughter, who had been quarrelsome with him after being confined for many days. Coming out of the city from the royal capital of the Frost Star Kingdom, there was a beautiful place thirty miles outside the city.
Huan Rang. A place leaning on water.
Cheng Qingwu was confined here, and Cheng Shi's wind came quietly. Suddenly he remembered that he seemed to have not been here for some time, and he couldn't help but sigh: "It's rare to steal half a day of leisure in a floating life."
As soon as I entered the Chengjia Villa and the backyard of the inner village, I heard my daughter scolding me: "What a nuisance, what a nuisance!"
"Young children will become adults in a blink of an eye. As a father, I am really busy with family affairs. I am really ashamed." Cheng Shifeng sighed: "It is time to get married. Whatever she wants, I will still agree to her.
"
"Nasty, nuisance, I'm just angry with you, but if I don't go looking for you, you can come look for me." Cheng Qingwu quietly looked around and muttered: "I want you to teach me what to do.
Where is the assassin?"
"Assassin?" Cheng Shifeng frowned, quietly retreated, and called the steward to inquire.
Cheng Guanshi is the chief steward of the outer village. He is very old. He is an old man who grew up watching Cheng Shi Feng and Cheng Qing Wu. Naturally, he knew it very well, so he immediately explained it.
The wind blows like a chicken: "How does my precious daughter still have such a dream? What's so good about being an assassin? It doesn't matter, she will get married sooner or later, so let her be naughty for once."
After a pause, Cheng Shifeng asked about the assassin. The manager finally had the opportunity to tell Zuo Wuzhou what happened. When Cheng Shifeng heard this, his heart moved: "What grade of assassin is this Lin Zhou?"
Fortunately, the steward asked about it and he answered smoothly: "Lin Zhou claims to be of the eighth grade."
Being an assassin is not an easy task. It requires professionalism and cooperation in cultivation, such as Po. Without good Po to cooperate, you are not a good assassin.
Cheng Shifeng's eyes lit up: "Bring him to see me."
Chengshi Feng has a rather elegant air. I think he was also a suave person when he was young. Even when he reaches middle age, he becomes more and more magnanimous.
The meeting between Zuo Wuzhou and Cheng Shifeng was relatively harmonious. They chatted for a while. Cheng Shifeng got straight to the point: "Brother Lin, how old are you?"
"Master Cheng, I once took the Dingyan Pill by mistake." He was dressed in black and was sophisticated and calm. Even though he claimed to be thirty years old, some people believed him.
However, the thirty-year-old eighth-grade is still quite eye-catching, so I have to make up a decent reason to cover it up.
Cheng Shifeng was envious for a moment, and the Dingyan Pill was also a precious thing. He smiled and said, "Brother Lin, if you have nowhere to go for the time being, you might as well stay at my Cheng family. What do you think?"
"Okay!" Zuo Wuzhou said as crisply as ever.
Chengshi Feng was overjoyed, and with the majesty of the Cheng family, even having two Martial Lords, the eighth-grade original was nothing. But the eighth-grade assassin was different. It should be noted that the eighth-grade assassin can often rely on his professional level to
Assassinate anyone below Wu Zun.
Cheng Shifeng was satisfied: "When there is nothing else going on, General Lin, why don't you stay with my little girl and teach her some simple assassin knowledge, just think of it as playing with her."
Zuo Wuzhou agreed. He frowned secretly: "This person can transfer quickly, so I agreed. From Brother Lin to General Lin, hey, it's a family."
Zuo Wuzhou was respectful and grateful to the manager of the Cheng family: "I think the head of the Cheng family probably took a fancy to my skills and identity as an assassin. No matter what, if I survive, it can be considered that the Cheng family has a little kindness to me, and I can take it as repayment."
Already."
He simply needed a stable place to recuperate. It would definitely take a year and a half for his injuries to completely heal. As soon as this thought came to mind, he decided to continue staying at Chengjia for the time being.
Cheng Shifeng smiled elegantly. When Cheng Qingwu was called by the steward, he calmly said: "Qing'er, dad taught you that taking it by yourself is stealing. That sword must be General Lin's usual weapon.
Give it back to people
.
Cheng Qingwu glared at Zuo Wuzhou angrily, thinking it was Zuo Wuzhou who was complaining, so she took out the black stream and threw it on the ground, crying: "I don't want it, it doesn't look good at all!"
Cheng Shifeng looked at Zuo Wuzhou apologetically, apologized before going to see his daughter.
Zuo Wuzhou was dumbfounded. He took the black stream back with a wry smile and put it in his arms. He was puzzled: "Why did I suddenly feel bad? Why did my heart soften for a moment when I saw her crying?"
She had to wait until the next day. Cheng Qingwu was so filled with hatred that she came to find her family to settle accounts early in the morning.
Rushing to the hut, he saw Zuo Wuzhou practicing cross-legged in the open space of the small courtyard. Cheng Qingwu was surprised and angrily said: "He got up early, what's the use? No matter how hard he practices, he can only reach the eighth level. At the same age as others, he has already
It’s Ninth Grade and Martial Master.”
He picked up a stone and angrily threw it at Zuo Wuzhou's head.
Zuo Wuzhou fell down miserably, losing all breath for a moment. Cheng Qingwu panicked,
Zuo Wuzhou only slept for two hours every day and got up early to practice.
After finishing practicing the Five Elements Soul, I was very satisfied: "Although I was injured, the progress of my training has not been greatly affected. Well, it's time to practice the soul."
While I was practicing soul training, I suddenly sensed an object flying towards me. I sensed that the object was not threatening, so I let it hit my face, and my heart moved. I felt like a young man, and I let out a scream, and fell back.
Suddenly, a familiar and rapid step came over. It was Cheng Qingwu, with a surprised and nervous look on his face. He shook his body and said, "Wake up, are you okay? Are you possessed?"
