Chapter 364 Xianxia's biological research?
(I'm dizzy, I actually combined the content of the two chapters. This time I have to treat it as a [-]-word chapter. It seems that subscriptions will be reduced again tomorrow.)
The titles of the two chapters, Chapter 1 is "The Biological Study of Xianxia", and Chapter 2 is "The Death of Qinghong? "
------------------
The next day, Zhang Yuanchu brought a mother and son to Qianlang Pavilion.
Seeing the young woman and the baby in her arms, Qinghong immediately frowned: "Is this the mother and child that we talked about yesterday?"
"That's right. The younger brother is going to help them make decisions today. I don't know what the rules are?"
Hearing the meaning of Zhang Yuanchu's words, Qinghong raised his sword eyebrows, and immediately cleared the blame: "I only said to help look at the situation, but I didn't say that I must take care of this matter, brother, don't cause trouble for me."
Zhang Yuanchu smiled, and winked at the woman next to him.
The woman immediately knelt down in front of Qinghong: "Please be merciful, immortal!"
Looking at this woman, her complexion is pale and her spirit is haggard, but she also looks like a delicate and weak woman.
These days, the woman has lost a lot of weight.After all, Ouyang Xiaochen left their mother and son behind.Their mother and son traveled thousands of miles to Daodezong to search for someone. They were malnourished, emotionally agitated, and weeping all day.
Qinghong pondered for a while: "It's not easy for outsiders to interfere in your family's affairs. This time, I ran into him and asked casually. What is the deal with you and your husband? If he really seeks the truth wholeheartedly, we will always It’s not good to waste his cultivation and go home with you. If you don’t want to, it won’t be good for you mother and child in the future, will it?”
"Princess Xian, the little lady just wants to meet him once and get a real answer from him."
How can there be such an easy thing in the world to abandon his wife and children with just a piece of paper and Lishu?
"Since that's the case, it's hard to talk if you really show up." Qinghong stretched out his hand and pointed at the mother and son: "Change!"
Two strands of profound energy captured the mother and son, and after a flash of white light, the two turned into two green beans, which Qinghong held in his hands.Immediately, he took a pen from Qianlange, opened the pen holder, and stuffed beans into it.
Seeing Qinghong's method, Zhang Yuanchu wondered: "When did the younger brother become so proficient in the art of transformation?" Although these young immortals have cultivated Dao Fruit, but after all, they have only a short time to become immortals, and many of them are good at the art of killing.Auxiliary Taoism such as changes, blessings, etc., are all homework that will be slowly added in the future.Planting lotuses in fire and turning beans into soldiers are both great ways to study in the future.
"The way to change the five elements is nothing more than the transformation of form. I have some experience in this regard after cooking with my junior sister all these years."
"Cooking in the human world, can you improve your Taoism in this area?" Zhang Yuanchu muttered in his heart, and took Qinghong to Wulaofeng.
"The five old peaks are for the five veins of the Taoist sect. Senior brother Ouyang is in the third peak, and senior sister He is the real senior sister and brother."
Soon, he brought Qinghong to see Ouyang Xiaochen.
Ouyang Xiaochen was fishing by the river.Wearing coir raincoats and straw hats, fishing slowly with a bamboo pole in hand.
Looking at this young and handsome man, Qinghong smiled slightly, stepped forward and picked up a stone to scare away the fish swimming in the water.
Ripples splashed in the water, Ouyang Xiaochen opened his eyes and looked at Erxian not far away.
"Junior Brother Zhang, who else is there?"
"My surname is Ji, you can call me Qinghong."
"Fellow Daoist Qinghong." Ouyang Xiaochen nodded, "Fellow Daoist surprised me by fishing, so I don't know what advice you can give."
The man was calm and gentle, completely unable to see that he would do evil things such as abandoning his wife and children.
"Hmph!" Zhang Yuanchu said coldly, "Don't you know what senior brother has done these days?"
"Oh? It's because of that." Ouyang Xiaochen put away the bamboo pole: "What advice do you two have? These days, Dezong has a lot of people looking for me. I'm tired of hearing that. If the Zong wants to punish me , I will directly receive the punishment, and go to the cold pond to think about it for a few years. But what else do you want me to do?"
"You..." Zhang Yuanchu pointed at Ouyang Xiaochen and was speechless.
Yes, what can he do?
Abolished the cultivation base and went down the mountain?Or reunite with his wife and children?The twisted melon is not sweet, and it will really anger Ouyang Xiaochen at that time, it will not be difficult to directly beat those two mortals to death.
The only punishment that Dao Dezong could do to Ouyang Xiaochen was to close the door and think about his mistakes.But what's the use of thinking about your mistakes if you don't really repent?
Qinghong smiled and sat next to Ouyang Xiaochen: "I also heard about this matter, fellow daoist. When fellow daoist fell in love with that woman, did you really fall in love with her?"
"Naturally." Ouyang Xiaochen nodded and said, "Emotion comes from the heart, and you can't fake it."
The penholder in Qinghong's waist seemed to tremble, and he asked again: "What about now?"
"Love is gone, the two parted."
"Then how do fellow Taoists view marriage and love?"
"Marriage? It's just a bondage of human nature. In ancient times, men and women lived together, how could it be so troublesome? The so-called responsibility of marriage is nothing more than a way to suppress people's own nature."
I really want to slap him.Zhang Yuanchu silently took out his golden umbrella.But Qinghong next to him gave him winks again and again, telling him to be calm.
"What about love?"
"Love? Is there such a thing in the world?" Ouyang Xiaochen tilted his head: "I also know the news that their mother and son are at the foot of the mountain during this period of time. I have visited them in secret, but one thing can make my heart stir I don’t even have any thoughts of love. I can’t find the thoughts of love in my mind now.”
"Do I really love her? Or, what is love?" Ouyang Xiaochen shook his head: "In the past few days, I have been studying the parent-child habits of various animals in the mountains. I saw some animals even kill themselves His child." With a shake of his bamboo pole, he threw a black fish out of the river: "This female fish just ate the little fish that she hatched a few days ago. Brother Zhang, Fellow Daoist Qinghong, what do you think is the reason?"
He pointed to the forest in the distance: "There is a bird in the forest that doesn't like raising children. It parasitizes its eggs in the nests of other birds and lets them raise them. Why is that?"
Zhang Yuanchu was left speechless by the question.He has been cultivating Taoism since he was a child, so how has he ever cared about this kind of thing?
Qinghong smiled wryly, it was like bamboo bear giving birth to twins.Will one of them kill the problem right away?
He rubbed his temples and responded: "The habit of eating children is indeed uncommon in nature. Some are for their own survival, and some are to reduce the number of offspring and devote more energy to taking care of other offspring. Race reproduction, in a cruel natural environment , in order to allow life to continue, resources must be diverted. I know Bamboo Bear has a similar behavior. If you give birth to multiple children, each one will not be able to eat enough, so the strongest child will be left behind. As for the kind of sustenance The special flying birds in the nests of other birds are also a way to reproduce. In order to let other birds raise them, they even take the initiative to kill the eggs of other birds so that their children can be taken care of, isn't it?"
"That's right, Fellow Daoist is really knowledgeable." Ouyang Xiaochen praised, and then changed the subject: "So, what about us people? The so-called marriage of men and women, the appetite for food, isn't it also for the survival of the race and the reproduction of offspring. Love? It's nothing more than the brain A kind of special power generated, driving each other to combine with each other to reproduce offspring."
Qinghong's expression became more and more strange. If this guy came to the earth in his previous life, he might really be a biologist.Have you even researched things like dopamine and hormones?
But the civilization of this world is different from the previous life, and Ouyang Xiaochen is limited by his own cognition.It can only be noticed that this is a special force extending from the brain.
"Three years ago, this power appeared in my mind, so I joined with mortals. But after three years, this power has disappeared. So I went back to the mountain and continued to practice."
"What about the so-called responsibility! As a husband, as a father!" Zhang Yuanchu couldn't help scolding.
"That's what your Dezong did, and it has nothing to do with our Daozong." Ouyang Xiaochen was too lazy to talk to Zhang Yuanchu, and he continued to talk to Qinghong: "After my research, it is not only love, but also hatred, sadness and other emotions. It also affects one's own consciousness through the special emotional power generated by the brain.
However, we must return to the innate state of Taoism, restore the state of a child, and comprehend the way of heaven with the purest Taoism.Or, restrain these emotions and comprehend the way of heaven with the method of 'cutting thoughts'.Or, indulge your desires, and when the power of emotions dissipates, you can continue to practice in peace. "
"So, you choose the second?" Qinghong smiled: "Friend Daoist, why is there a difference between immortals and demons? Why did the ancient Yuandao Qi refiners become the predecessors of the Demon Sect? Apart from the influence of the turbid evil spirit, this This method of indulgence is exactly what the disciples of the Demon Sect do. Aren’t we in the Taoist sect mainly focusing on cutting thoughts and meditating? It seems that there is nothing wrong with your practice this time. But he wants to vent to you if you encounter it. When you feel hatred in your heart, will you suddenly run out and kill someone?"
"This..." Ouyang Xiaochen fell into deep thought, as if he really hadn't thought about this question.
"Forget it, anyway, today is not to teach him the truth." Qinghong's heart moved, and he stretched out his hand to point to the river: "Daoist friend, look."
In the distance, two buffaloes, one big and one small, approached.Among them, the calf stumbles and stumbles, while the cow next to it takes good care of it.
"The animal habits you so-called do exist. But the nature of mother and child also exists among animals." Qinghong stretched out his hand and held the calf in his arms: "Say, how about we kill this calf and cook it now?"
Before Ouyang Xiaochen could reply, the cow rushed in front of the three like crazy.
But there was a fairy light shining above the heads of the three of them, and soon the cow was knocked away by the auspicious light.But she yelled and hit Xiangguang Yunxia frequently, which made Zhang Yuanchu look unbearable.
"Junior brother? Let's forget it."
"What do fellow Taoists say?" Qinghong handed the calf to Ouyang Xiaochen.
Seeing this, the cow immediately yelled at Ouyang Xiaochen.Niu Mu showed hope, as if expecting his action.
"Let me figure it out."
As soon as this remark came out, the cow was overjoyed.But the next moment, the cow was completely chilled.
"There's nothing to eat a calf. It's better to keep it in the back mountain for a few years, and then wait until it grows up, and cook it together with the cow."
Hearing this, the cow knelt on the ground and said nothing more.
Seeing this scene, Qinghong smiled slightly and asked Zhang Yuanchu to keep the cow: "Brother, take the cow back and take good care of it first. When I come back in a few years, I will have a whole cow feast."
Zhang Yuanchu's expression dropped, he hugged the calf and led the cow away, leaving only Qinghong and Ouyang Xiaochen behind.
Looking at the backs of Zhang Yuanchu and the two cows, Ouyang Xiaochen suddenly sighed: "After this time, no one should bother me anymore."
"So, did those words come from the heart? Or were they said against your will, just to avoid future troubles?"
"The way comes from the heart, and it only corresponds to the thought at that moment just now." Ouyang Xiaochen looked at Qinghong, and said with a smile: "Love is born from the heart. Disillusioned with a thought. When the thought is moved, I will go down to the world and start a family. After the thought is gone, I will naturally return to the forest Cultivate the Tao. No matter what outsiders think, as long as my heart is complete, why should I be afraid of other rumors?"
Qinghong is silent, is there any theory of good and evil under the law of heaven?Whether it is cultivating immortals or becoming a demon, for heaven and earth, it is an existence beyond the evolution of natural laws.Only because there are more and more immortals and demons, there is the so-called heavenly demon realm, and the corresponding rules have been set by the ancestors of various schools.
If it were really put into ancient times, maybe Ouyang Xiaochen would be the celestial being who opened up a heavenly realm.
At least, although Ouyang Xiaochen has a cool personality, who cares whether you are cool or not?He has no guilt in himself, and has no remorse or guilt at all, as if he has less emotion than others.Any abuse and reasoning are of no use to him.Even the magic skills of Tianxin Demon Sect can hardly make him feel turbulent.
"It is indeed more convenient for this kind of person to seek the Tao than us."
In Qinghong's eyes, both moral lines have their own advantages.Dezong attaches great importance to humanity and accumulates external skills, which can make it easier for him to practice.Daozong comprehends the mind of heaven, and can understand the natural way with a pure heart, free from external influences.
Both factions have their own advantages.
However, Dezong paid too much attention to humanity, even more than Qinghong.He often practiced in the world, and even helped mortals by compromising his own morality.To mortals, they are, of course, benevolent gods.But to oneself, it is tantamount to blocking one's own way, still falling into a magic barrier.
Daozong is indifferent to human feelings and concentrates on comprehending the way of heaven. Joy, anger, sorrow, and joy arise and disappear at will, without leaving any traces.Although Ouyang Xiaochen had a very good attitude towards Qinghong at this moment, Qinghong could feel in his heart that this person could not remember himself at all, let alone cultivate any relationship with him.Because until tomorrow, all their emotions of today will not be left behind, and it is his pursuit to be happy and rejoice.
"Fellow Daoist, Daozong or Dezong, whose philosophy do you think is better?"
"How do I know? What Fairy He of your sect said yesterday is correct. Thousands of people have a thousand ways, and a thousand people have a thousand understandings. But every practice has its extreme possibility. Indulging in lust is too much a demon, but killing thoughts and ruthlessness , isn’t it a kind of demon?”
"How to swing between the two depends on yourself. So far, fellow Taoists haven't really murdered and betrayed the family. According to your Daodezong's practice, it is to think behind closed doors for a few years. Although I don't like it, that's it."
But as an outsider, Qinghong persuaded the mother and son to leave, let them know Ouyang Xiaochen's attitude, and An Ansheng went home to live in the future, that was better than anything else.
"As far as my personal attitude is concerned, mortals are the cornerstone of our fairy family after all, and the foundation for the continuation of Taoism. Mortals should be protected well, at least don't let them demonize us."
After Qinghong finished speaking, he took his leave and left.
But he wandered around Wulaofeng without Zhang Yuanchu leading the way, so he came to the edge of a waterfall unknowingly.
There is a "Waterfall Watching Pavilion" next to it, and an old man is painting in it.
Qinghong became curious and stepped forward to watch.
In that painting is a scene of a sea of clouds, and the old man is carefully outlining a cloud with every stroke.The strokes of the pen stop and go, and it takes less than half an hour to draw a cloud.
When Yun Duo was about to finish, suddenly the old man stopped, threw the pen away, and started playing the piano beside him.
Qinghong couldn't help asking: "Why didn't seniors continue to draw?"
"I don't care. This landscape painting looks elegant, but it's also the obstacle of our Taoists. Don't force it, don't force it." The old man shook his head, played the piano twice, and drank a cup of clear tea, feeling very uncomfortable.
Seeing him like this, Qinghong suddenly thought of what the mysterious man said in the past: "Watering flowers and planting trees looks elegant, but in fact it is a Taoist demon barrier. Once you are persistent in thinking, you will fall into the law of doing things. This is the next thing to do." road."
So facing the old man, he looked humble: "I don't know the senior's name?"
"Ouyang Xiaochen, who was talking to you just now, is the disciple of this old man. This old man is added as the third elder of Wulaofeng, and his surname is Mo. You can call me Mo Lao."
He stood up and said to Qinghong: "I heard what you and Xiaochen said. Thousands of people have thousands of methods, you are right. My Taoism and Dezong have different ideas, but there are five lines of inheritance within my Taoism." , There is a huge difference between each other. Brother Li and I don't get along very well with Zhan Nian Dharma. I think that in cultivating the Tao, we should grasp the six words 'don't force it, don't cling to it'."
"From what Mo Lao said, it seems that he is not dissatisfied with Ouyang Xiaochen's actions."
"It's neither satisfactory nor dissatisfied. Whatever he does is a step towards his pure Dao Xin. The Daoist sect 'uses the heart of virtue to understand the mind of Dao'. This is true. Before practicing Dao, one should first seek the purity of Dao Xin. But what about Taoism? There are no stereotypes, it’s just different from person to person. Dezong believes that the good and evil etiquette in the world is the key to cultivating the mind and self-cultivation. But in our Taoism, these are all bullshit."
Qinghong shook his head and smiled bitterly: Fortunately, Zhang Yuanchu is not here, otherwise there would be no trouble?
"Hehe, don't worry. In the face of Dezong's group, this old man would not dare to say it in person. After all, he is not a fool to do whatever he wants. This old man is not as stupid as Xiaochen, and he is too inconsiderate in doing things."
"But Momen seems to have a similar point of view. They think that before cultivating, one should abandon the acquired appearance and use the innate appearance to conform to the law of nature. For example, what is natural selection is what they most admire."
"It's nothing more than an excuse." Mo Lao said with a smile: "It's true casualness or fake casualness, others don't know, don't you know? Is it the same to indulge one's desires and relieve stress and cultivate one's mind? This kid Ouyang is wandering in the fairyland. The edge of the devil. Either go one step further, and continue to indulge your emotions in the future, like the behavior of a devil. Or, the heart of the Tao is perfect, free and easy. Use your own perfect heart to dissolve all emotions. One thought of emotion is born, and one thought of emotion is extinguished. Consummated Dao Heart? He is still far behind."
That's right, compared to Ouyang Xiaochen.From the old man, I can feel a feeling of being at ease with the situation, or a feeling of contentment.
"Then do you seek advice, old man?"
"Is the Tao used for seeking?" The old man clapped his hands, and the clear voice echoed in the valley: "This is the Tao!"
Then he pointed to the gurgling water in the mountain: "This is also the Tao."
"Tao is everywhere, so why seek it. You are a Daoist, and the old man is also a Daoist. There are all kinds of Dao around each of us. Why should we persist in seeking the Tao?"
Qinghong nodded frequently, this state of mind was no different from what the mysterious person said in the past.This is the path of inaction.
According to that person, the desire to seek the Tao is an attachment.As long as there is an obsessive heart, if you fall into the law of action, you will not enter the true law of Taoism.
"But... I always feel that Mo Lao's aura is too perfect." Looking carefully, Mo Lao is one with the heaven and the earth, as if closely connected with nature.But this invisible space also restrains Mo Lao's possibility of transcending and ascending, and comprehending the celestial beings.
"Why can't Mo Lao's state of mind soar, but the kind of people who are persistent in becoming immortals can soar one by one?" Suddenly, Qinghong flashed a thought.
But the next moment, he naturally realized: "Is it because of perseverance?"
Cultivating immortals requires great perseverance, and after going through hardships, he ascends to Qingming.Elder Mo is content with whatever happens, how can he have such perseverance.Therefore, he was unable to ascend for a long time, and did not have the Taoist heart to fight against the sky and step into the realm of heaven and man.
But those who step into the realm of heaven and man and persist in seeking the Tao will be blocked before the Taoist door.The desire to seek the Tao that originally made them become immortals has become the ultimate demonic obstacle.
"It's not enough to be content with whatever comes your way, and it's also not enough to be persistent and forceful."
With a flash of Qinghong's thoughts, the whole person fell into a special state.
Mo Lao is drinking tea slowly.Suddenly, the cloud map in front of him shone with splendor, echoing with Qinghong.
"Hey, what is this?" This cirrus cloud picture is the Taishang Daoyu he depicted.Although he can't become a celestial being, he can see the Supreme Holy Realm above Qingming every day when his soul wanders around Qingming.When he paints, it is precisely to describe the holy land.
Now that the cloud map changes, a spiritual light rises from Qinghong's body, and there is no life in the next moment.
Mo Lao frowned, stepped forward to test Qinghong's nose, and was stunned: This kid——is dead?
Bai Xiaoyi: Daozong is too casual, like a chaotic camp, while Dezong is like a lawful camp.Although both are kind or neutral camps, it feels like Daodezong takes jujube pills
Author Response: Are Doctrines Divided?Taishang Daomai said that this has become commonplace.
bluedream97: Abandoning his wife and son, the next step is to kill his wife and son to prove his love. I always feel that the Taoist sect will split if it is not done well.
Author's reply: Congratulations for catching up with the big team.Regarding cutting emotions to prove the way, this is not from Ouyang's lineage.They emphasize "following one's heart" and "cutting emotions and respecting the sky" is from Li Shimei's lineage, and her master is such a person.

"So, you choose the second?" Qinghong smiled: "Friend Daoist, why is there a difference between immortals and demons? Why did the ancient Yuandao Qi refiners become the predecessors of the Demon Sect? Apart from the influence of the turbid evil spirit, this This method of indulgence is exactly what the disciples of the Demon Sect do. Aren’t we in the Taoist sect mainly focusing on cutting thoughts and meditating? It seems that there is nothing wrong with your practice this time. But he wants to vent to you if you encounter it. When you feel hatred in your heart, will you suddenly run out and kill someone?"
"This..." Ouyang Xiaochen fell into deep thought, as if he really hadn't thought about this question.
"Forget it, anyway, today is not to teach him the truth." Qinghong's heart moved, and he stretched out his hand to point to the river: "Daoist friend, look."
In the distance, two buffaloes, one big and one small, approached.Among them, the calf stumbles and stumbles, while the cow next to it takes good care of it.
"The animal habits you so-called do exist. But the nature of mother and child also exists among animals." Qinghong stretched out his hand and held the calf in his arms: "Say, how about we kill this calf and cook it now?"
Before Ouyang Xiaochen could reply, the cow rushed in front of the three like crazy.
But there was a fairy light shining above the heads of the three of them, and soon the cow was knocked away by the auspicious light.But she yelled and hit Xiangguang Yunxia frequently, which made Zhang Yuanchu look unbearable.
"Junior brother? Let's forget it."
"What do fellow Taoists say?" Qinghong handed the calf to Ouyang Xiaochen.
Seeing this, the cow immediately yelled at Ouyang Xiaochen.Niu Mu showed hope, as if expecting his action.
"Let me figure it out."
As soon as this remark came out, the cow was overjoyed.But the next moment, the cow was completely chilled.
"There's nothing to eat a calf. It's better to keep it in the back mountain for a few years, and then wait until it grows up, and cook it together with the cow."
Hearing this, the cow knelt on the ground and said nothing more.
Seeing this scene, Qinghong smiled slightly and asked Zhang Yuanchu to keep the cow: "Brother, take the cow back and take good care of it first. When I come back in a few years, I will have a whole cow feast."
Zhang Yuanchu's expression dropped, he hugged the calf and led the cow away, leaving only Qinghong and Ouyang Xiaochen behind.
Looking at the backs of Zhang Yuanchu and the two cows, Ouyang Xiaochen suddenly sighed: "After this time, no one should bother me anymore."
"So, did those words come from the heart? Or were they said against your will, just to avoid future troubles?"
"The way comes from the heart, and it only corresponds to the thought at that moment just now." Ouyang Xiaochen looked at Qinghong, and said with a smile: "Love is born from the heart. Disillusioned with a thought. When the thought is moved, I will go down to the world and start a family. After the thought is gone, I will naturally return to the forest Cultivate the Tao. No matter what outsiders think, as long as my heart is complete, why should I be afraid of other rumors?"
Qinghong is silent, is there any theory of good and evil under the law of heaven?Whether it is cultivating immortals or becoming a demon, for heaven and earth, it is an existence beyond the evolution of natural laws.Only because there are more and more immortals and demons, there is the so-called heavenly demon realm, and the corresponding rules have been set by the ancestors of various schools.
If it were really put into ancient times, maybe Ouyang Xiaochen would be the celestial being who opened up a heavenly realm.
At least, although Ouyang Xiaochen has a cool personality, who cares whether you are cool or not?He has no guilt in himself, and has no remorse or guilt at all, as if he has less emotion than others.Any abuse and reasoning are of no use to him.Even the magic skills of Tianxin Demon Sect can hardly make him feel turbulent.
"It is indeed more convenient for this kind of person to seek the Tao than us."
In Qinghong's eyes, both moral lines have their own advantages.Dezong attaches great importance to humanity and accumulates external skills, which can make it easier for him to practice.Daozong comprehends the mind of heaven, and can understand the natural way with a pure heart, free from external influences.
Both factions have their own advantages.
However, Dezong paid too much attention to humanity, even more than Qinghong.He often practiced in the world, and even helped mortals by compromising his own morality.To mortals, they are, of course, benevolent gods.But to oneself, it is tantamount to blocking one's own way, still falling into a magic barrier.
Daozong is indifferent to human feelings and concentrates on comprehending the way of heaven. Joy, anger, sorrow, and joy arise and disappear at will, without leaving any traces.Although Ouyang Xiaochen had a very good attitude towards Qinghong at this moment, Qinghong could feel in his heart that this person could not remember himself at all, let alone cultivate any relationship with him.Because until tomorrow, all their emotions of today will not be left behind, and it is his pursuit to be happy and rejoice.
"Fellow Daoist, Daozong or Dezong, whose philosophy do you think is better?"
"How do I know? What Fairy He of your sect said yesterday is correct. Thousands of people have a thousand ways, and a thousand people have a thousand understandings. But every practice has its extreme possibility. Indulging in lust is too much a demon, but killing thoughts and ruthlessness , isn’t it a kind of demon?”
"How to swing between the two depends on yourself. So far, fellow Taoists haven't really murdered and betrayed the family. According to your Daodezong's practice, it is to think behind closed doors for a few years. Although I don't like it, that's it."
But as an outsider, Qinghong persuaded the mother and son to leave, let them know Ouyang Xiaochen's attitude, and An Ansheng went home to live in the future, that was better than anything else.
"As far as my personal attitude is concerned, mortals are the cornerstone of our fairy family after all, and the foundation for the continuation of Taoism. Mortals should be protected well, at least don't let them demonize us."
After Qinghong finished speaking, he took his leave and left.
But he wandered around Wulaofeng without Zhang Yuanchu leading the way, so he came to the edge of a waterfall unknowingly.
There is a "Waterfall Watching Pavilion" next to it, and an old man is painting in it.
Qinghong became curious and stepped forward to watch.
In that painting is a scene of a sea of clouds, and the old man is carefully outlining a cloud with every stroke.The strokes of the pen stop and go, and it takes less than half an hour to draw a cloud.
When Yun Duo was about to finish, suddenly the old man stopped, threw the pen away, and started playing the piano beside him.
Qinghong couldn't help asking: "Why didn't seniors continue to draw?"
"I don't care. This landscape painting looks elegant, but it's also the obstacle of our Taoists. Don't force it, don't force it." The old man shook his head, played the piano twice, and drank a cup of clear tea, feeling very uncomfortable.
Seeing him like this, Qinghong suddenly thought of what the mysterious man said in the past: "Watering flowers and planting trees looks elegant, but in fact it is a Taoist demon barrier. Once you are persistent in thinking, you will fall into the law of doing things. This is the next thing to do." road."
So facing the old man, he looked humble: "I don't know the senior's name?"
"Ouyang Xiaochen, who was talking to you just now, is the disciple of this old man. This old man is added as the third elder of Wulaofeng, and his surname is Mo. You can call me Mo Lao."
He stood up and said to Qinghong: "I heard what you and Xiaochen said. Thousands of people have thousands of methods, you are right. My Taoism and Dezong have different ideas, but there are five lines of inheritance within my Taoism." , There is a huge difference between each other. Brother Li and I don't get along very well with Zhan Nian Dharma. I think that in cultivating the Tao, we should grasp the six words 'don't force it, don't cling to it'."
"From what Mo Lao said, it seems that he is not dissatisfied with Ouyang Xiaochen's actions."
"It's neither satisfactory nor dissatisfied. Whatever he does is a step towards his pure Dao Xin. The Daoist sect 'uses the heart of virtue to understand the mind of Dao'. This is true. Before practicing Dao, one should first seek the purity of Dao Xin. But what about Taoism? There are no stereotypes, it’s just different from person to person. Dezong believes that the good and evil etiquette in the world is the key to cultivating the mind and self-cultivation. But in our Taoism, these are all bullshit."
Qinghong shook his head and smiled bitterly: Fortunately, Zhang Yuanchu is not here, otherwise there would be no trouble?
"Hehe, don't worry. In the face of Dezong's group, this old man would not dare to say it in person. After all, he is not a fool to do whatever he wants. This old man is not as stupid as Xiaochen, and he is too inconsiderate in doing things."
"But Momen seems to have a similar point of view. They think that before cultivating, one should abandon the acquired appearance and use the innate appearance to conform to the law of nature. For example, what is natural selection is what they most admire."
"It's nothing more than an excuse." Mo Lao said with a smile: "It's true casualness or fake casualness, others don't know, don't you know? Is it the same to indulge one's desires and relieve stress and cultivate one's mind? This kid Ouyang is wandering in the fairyland. The edge of the devil. Either go one step further, and continue to indulge your emotions in the future, like the behavior of a devil. Or, the heart of the Tao is perfect, free and easy. Use your own perfect heart to dissolve all emotions. One thought of emotion is born, and one thought of emotion is extinguished. Consummated Dao Heart? He is still far behind."
That's right, compared to Ouyang Xiaochen.From the old man, I can feel a feeling of being at ease with the situation, or a feeling of contentment.
"Then do you seek advice, old man?"
"Is the Tao used for seeking?" The old man clapped his hands, and the clear voice echoed in the valley: "This is the Tao!"
Then he pointed to the gurgling water in the mountain: "This is also the Tao."
"Tao is everywhere, so why seek it. You are a Daoist, and the old man is also a Daoist. There are all kinds of Dao around each of us. Why should we persist in seeking the Tao?"
Qinghong nodded frequently, this state of mind was no different from what the mysterious person said in the past.This is the path of inaction.
According to that person, the desire to seek the Tao is an attachment.As long as there is an obsessive heart, if you fall into the law of action, you will not enter the true law of Taoism.
"But... I always feel that Mo Lao's aura is too perfect." Looking carefully, Mo Lao is one with the heaven and the earth, as if closely connected with nature.But this invisible space also restrains Mo Lao's possibility of transcending and ascending, and comprehending the celestial beings.
"Why can't Mo Lao's state of mind soar, but the kind of people who are persistent in becoming immortals can soar one by one?" Suddenly, Qinghong flashed a thought.
But the next moment, he naturally realized: "Is it because of perseverance?"
Cultivating immortals requires great perseverance, and after going through hardships, he ascends to Qingming.Elder Mo is content with whatever happens, how can he have such perseverance.Therefore, he was unable to ascend for a long time, and did not have the Taoist heart to fight against the sky and step into the realm of heaven and man.
But those who step into the realm of heaven and man and persist in seeking the Tao will be blocked before the Taoist door.The desire to seek the Tao that originally made them become immortals has become the ultimate demonic obstacle.
"It's not enough to be content with whatever comes your way, and it's also not enough to be persistent and forceful."
With a flash of Qinghong's thoughts, the whole person fell into a special state.
Mo Lao is drinking tea slowly.Suddenly, the cloud map in front of him shone with splendor, echoing with Qinghong.
"Hey, what is this?" This cirrus cloud picture is the Taishang Daoyu he depicted.Although he can't become a celestial being, he can see the Supreme Holy Realm above Qingming every day when his soul wanders around Qingming.When he paints, it is precisely to describe the holy land.
Now that the cloud map changes, a spiritual light rises from Qinghong's body, and there is no life in the next moment.
Mo Lao frowned, stepped forward to test Qinghong's nose, and was stunned: This kid——is dead?
Bai Xiaoyi: Daozong is too casual, like a chaotic camp, while Dezong is like a lawful camp.Although both are kind or neutral camps, it feels like Daodezong takes jujube pills
Author Response: Are Doctrines Divided?Taishang Daomai said that this has become commonplace.
bluedream97: Abandoning his wife and son, the next step is to kill his wife and son to prove his love. I always feel that the Taoist sect will split if it is not done well.
Author's reply: Congratulations for catching up with the big team.Regarding cutting emotions to prove the way, this is not from Ouyang's lineage.They emphasize "following one's heart" and "cutting emotions and respecting the sky" is from Li Shimei's lineage, and her master is such a person.
