No abstraction, no cultivation

Chapter 151 Confrontation
After a long while, Deng Zhao said, "The people here are simple and honest, so we can only have such extravagant wishes!"

In his opinion, the so-called "free and easy" is a luxury.

Who can be truly free and at ease?

What will you choose when you realize that the world is not what you imagined?

The very beginning of spiritual practice is to communicate with the "God", use your own "God" to mobilize magic power, and then transform into a tiger.

Enter the Dragon.

In essence, it is a tug-of-war between the world in one's mind and the real world.

Do individuals change with their environment, or do they remain constant no matter how the environment changes?
Poorness leads to change, and change leads to continuity.

Change is not necessarily right, and staying the same is not necessarily wrong.

No one has ever stipulated that there is a correct path for spiritual practice.

Just like him, he did not take the same path as Lan Dao Ren, but he also became an immortal.

It seemed incredible to Xu Shun, but when he saw the way the cultivators in this world practiced, wasn’t it equally incredible?
You don't have to fight for anything, just let the dragon and the tiger fight to achieve the golden elixir, and then you can see the true spirit. Isn't this a joke?

Where is the chance? Where is the magic herb? Can you cultivate immortality without fighting or competing?
It’s really unbelievable!
Are you still pursuing freedom and ease?

You are really bored.

It’s good enough to be able to survive and not become material for others’ cultivation!
After all, the world is material. It does not change according to one's wishes. Who can be free and at ease?
Only someone like Lan Daoist who follows his heart in everything without affecting his original intention can be free and at ease!

Therefore, many people in Buddhism and Taoism pay more attention to the cultivation of their mind and character. Since the world cannot change, they can only adapt their mind and character to the world.

Human sufferings, joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, love and hate, greed, anger, ignorance and madness, if you cannot see these things, then you can pretend that they do not exist.

Even if you can see it, don't take it to heart.

In this way, if you don’t worry about anything, you can be free and at ease!

Instead of working on your mind and deceiving yourself, it is better to just let go and do whatever you want.

Therefore, he said that the people here are simple and honest, so he has such extravagant hopes.

Zi Geng understood, and Xu Shun also understood.

They also heard the sourness in Deng Zhao's words, as if to say, "You are lucky to be able to practice in this world, and you can talk without any pain in your waist."

Zi Geng also smiled slightly and said, "Now that you are here, do you want to fight for it?"

"That's right! This place is quite special and quite barren. If we don't fight for it, it will be difficult to survive." Deng Zhao said as he looked at them.

What the three people said just now can be seen as mutual testing.

If you ask what kind of people can work together, of course, those with the same values.

But they can't be too similar, because those slick people in the fairy world are too similar. The people he has in mind are preferably those who are inexperienced in the world and have complaints about the sect, so he can fool them all.

Are the two people in front of me like this?

Xu Shun continued, "Brother, you fought in heaven before, and now you are fighting here again. What is the point of fighting?"

Deng Zhao replied: "To become an immortal!"

"But the fairyland is gone! The immortals are gone too!" said Xu Shun.

“……” Deng Zhao was silent again.

Xu Shun’s words were like a knife stabbing into his heart.

The fairyland is gone, the fairies are gone, and everything I have struggled for all my life has suddenly collapsed.

In addition, many banished immortals have nothing to do in the world of immortal cultivation, so cultivators like Xu Shun have no admiration or respect for immortals.

A stray dog ​​from his home is a nuisance and is looked down upon by others. Even a stranger can point out his past.

Deng Zhao felt a little uncomfortable with the gap in status and the ridicule from the people around him. He could only say: "My two Taoist friends, no matter how difficult the world is, we must live!" From the world of immortal cultivation to the world of immortals, and from the world of immortals to the world of immortal cultivation, he was now trying hard to survive.

There is nothing wrong with living!

"Isn't it just to survive, not to become an immortal?" Xu Shun added.

Deng Zhao glanced at Xu Shun and said slowly: "Only by living can one become an immortal."

Xu Shun said: "The world of immortal cultivation is not peaceful right now, why don't you find a place to practice in peace and stability?"

The world of immortal cultivation is actually quite friendly to cultivators. Not to mention those far away, in Qingyun Market, there are many jobs that only cultivators can do.

"Too slow!" Deng Zhao shook his head and said, "Too slow! When will I be able to recover my cultivation in peace and stability?"

Zigeng said, "So, you want to make a big deal?"

Deng Zhao did not respond to this, but instead said: "You two are disciples of a big sect, you should know that there are injustices in the sect, and it is not comfortable."

"Some disciples are more favored by their teachers than others, some disciples are good at practicing to gain more resources, and some disciples are good at making trouble."

"The so-called sect is nothing more than a large place for raising children."

"For a sect, most disciples are dispensable. Only a few can become the backbone."

"Is that what I said?"

It's a hammer!

Zi Geng thought so in his heart, but said: "Brother is right, there are also dirty people in the sect."

"So, disciples of big sects put the interests of the sect first and are ordered around by their teachers, and yet they want to be free and easy?" Deng Zhao said with a grin.

Just now he was stabbed by Xu Shun and Zi Geng, and now he started to stab them back.

You two disciples of big sects have been under the sect’s rules all your life, and you also want to live freely?

Isn't that just looking for fish in a tree?
"...That makes some sense!" Xu Shun nodded and said.

This is true for most sects, but the Qinghua Sect is a particularly abstract sect and is not like this.

"Let's be frank. Your business is related to the Qingyun Market, isn't it?"

An immortal came to Qingyun Market and said there was a big deal. What else could it be?

The banished immortal never helps others, he only robs and robs.

"Since you have guessed it, I won't hide it. I am looking for some helpers. Are you interested?"

"We are disciples of the Qinghua Sect."

"As long as the benefits are great, there is nothing that won't tempt you. After the matter is accomplished, we will share it. You will have enough merit to practice for a lifetime. Why do you still want to be a disciple of a sect and serve others like a dog?"

"Isn't this the true freedom and ease?" Deng Zhao said seductively.

Xu Shun said, "We are all serious monks, we don't do this."

"If I practice cultivation because of hurting others, I will feel uneasy."

"If cultivation must be like this, then I would rather not cultivate at all!"

Deng Zhao shook his sleeves and said, "You are such a pedant! You are so young and don't know the hardship of practicing. When you encounter risks, you want to retreat. How can you become a great man in the future?"

"A cultivator has things he asks for and things he doesn't ask for." Zi Geng also shook his head and said.

His pursuit is different from Xu Shun's, but it is not Deng Zhao's path.

So, the three of them broke up.
