Chapter 283

Of course, at the moment, it doesn't work.This requires martial arts cultivation to reach at least star rank, and Taoism cultivation base to reach the seventh rank or above to be considered a success.Moreover, such examples cannot be isolated, but at least a group of people, and only when they reach a certain percentage.

"Cultivation is something that can't be rushed. It can be practiced slowly. As for Taoism, I think it has a lot to do with talent. You can take a look and study it first, as long as you don't rise to the seventh level of Taoism. Teacher, everything is easy to talk about." Qiongren said lazily.

Ren Daoyuan was angry about it: "There is no rush for cultivation? How old are you now? You are in your 20s, and you are still at the human level. You are not in a hurry. Big relationship, but more important is comprehension, comprehension of life, comprehension of heaven and earth, comprehension of everything you can see, and finally comprehension of the way of heaven. This is not urgent, nor is it urgent, in the end, everything is in vain.”

"No hurry, no hurry, there is or there is no, empty is not empty." Qiong Ren shook his head and said words that no one could understand.

"Forget it, do as you please." Ren Daoyuan gave up persuading Qiongren. This old man looks like he doesn't understand anything, but in fact he has a lot of ideas in his heart.

Qiongren is a very good friend, but Ren Daoyuan feels that this person is not very close, and it seems that everything is under control. No one can understand where his confidence comes from.At this moment, Ren Daoyuan really believed that he was from Yuzhou.Yuzhou people are usually like this, with a self-confidence that people from other states cannot understand.

A few days later, Ren Daoyuan finally ushered in his real first class since he entered Yundao Abode.The tutor this time is naturally one of the three tutors he applied for, the guardian of Yundao Abode, Yuezu Fengtongxiao.

Feng Tongxiao's courtyard looks much better than Ren Daoyuan's dormitory, not only has similar small buildings, but also has an independent courtyard.This is the difference between the staff of Yundao Abode and the students. These rooms with independent courtyards, no matter how much money you pay, it is impossible to live in them.

Feng Tongxiao looks a little old, with gray hair, simply tied up on his head, and wearing a somewhat dirty black and white guardian warrior uniform. On the warrior uniform, there is a semicircular moon marked on it. Yundao waist plate with the same logo.

In the center of the courtyard, there was a stone table and chairs, and beside the stone table stood a huge black wooden board.Under the board, there are clear water, rags, lime strips and other sundries.

"Student Ren Daoyuan, come to ask for advice." Walking into the courtyard, Ren Daoyuan bowed and said, this is Yundao Abode, when you come to class, no matter what the instructor is, you just need to be called Mr. .

"Sit, what do you want to learn?" The tuition fee of Yundao Jingshe is frighteningly high, but it is very humane. Most of the class hours for this kind of application are taught alone.Thinking about it, few students would be willing to take classes with other people. After all, one class, one hour, would cost [-] gold coins, so they couldn't make it cheaper for others.

Ren Daoyuan sat down and said: "Students have a lot of troubles in Taoism, sir, please explain."

Feng Tongxiao seems to be a relatively rigid person, ever since Ren Daoyuan walked into the courtyard, he didn't see any changes on his face: "Speak, let's discuss together."

"What is the Tao? What is the Tao of Heaven?" Ren Daoyuan asked a relatively common question. As a Taoist, no one would not know it, but the understanding is different.

"Tao is principle, the correct direction. The way of heaven, the principle formed naturally." Feng Tongxiao was not angry, and said casually, almost every new student here would ask the same question.

"Thank you for your guidance, sir." Ren Daoyuan said with a smile. Feng Tongxiao's answer was nothing new, but he couldn't find any mistakes, and he couldn't see how advanced his understanding of Taoism was.

"Please tell me what is the way, sir." Ren Daoyuan said again. In this, he meant to ask for advice, and at the same time, he also had the idea of ​​comparing.The same three words of what is Tao, the previous question is completely different from the question asked this time.

Feng Tongxiao obviously understood, looked around, picked up a four-foot-long wooden stick and said, "This is Tao, how much do you understand?"

Ren Daoyuan's eyes were serious, he was indeed a man of no vain under his prestige, this first-order Taoist, his understanding of Tao is not simple, not completely dead-educated, it is unimaginable that a person like him can't Make a second-order Taoist device.

This is the case with the Taoist profession. No matter how well you explain the principles of Taoism and how deep your understanding is, if you can't make Taoist tools of the corresponding grade, it is useless to speak more.

"This is a wooden stick, it was taken out of a tree." Ren Daoyuan thought for a while and gave a well-regulated answer.

"Yes, this is just the perspective of ordinary people. The perspective of a Taoist should be changeable and broader. What else do you see?" Feng Tong asked with a smile.

"Weapons, tools, fuel..." Ren Daoyuan came up with three possibilities.

Feng Tongxiao nodded slightly. Although there was a word for laughing in his name, he never smiled: "You have already entered the Tao, but you are only entering the Tao. There is still a long way to go from the real Tao. Look, this What is it?"

As he said that, Feng Tongxiao folded the wooden stick into two pieces with a little force, holding one section in each hand.

"This..." In an instant, several possibilities appeared in Ren Daoyuan's mind, but he knew that this was not what Feng Tongxiao wanted to say.

"Very good, although you didn't answer me, but I know, you have understood a little bit." Feng Tongxiao said with satisfaction, Yundao Abode has never been short of talented Taoist apprentices, but those who can keep up with his train of thought , but not often.

He doesn't care about the [-] gold coins per hour. If a student's talent is so good that he is satisfied, let alone no fee, even changing money is nothing special. He has no shortage of Feng Tongxiao money.

"Artifact?" Ren Daoyuan tried to ask.

"That's right. Originally, a wooden stick can be seen from different perspectives. This is the way, the way of heaven. The process of breaking it is my understanding of the way of heaven, and extending it is the process of making utensils for our Taoists. If you fold it casually, the use of this wooden stick will change a lot.”

"That's right." Ren Daoyuan nodded repeatedly. He understood what Feng Tong said with a smile, but he never thought about it carefully.Speaking of which, what Ren Daoyuan lacked the most was the basic theoretical knowledge of Taoism.The process of his learning was all learned by himself from Master Hamingfei's dream.

There are very few theories that he has really studied, and he should also thank General Niu Tianxing. If he hadn't sent Ren Daoyuan to the Pingshan Daozong Beginner's Gym, Ren Daoyuan would not have learned even this basic.Although he has learned a little, after all, the time is too short and the knowledge he can come into contact with is limited. Therefore, many times, Ren Daoyuan clearly feels that he understands, but he always feels like a layer of translucent gauze is covered in front of his eyes. .

"Look at what this is again?" Feng Tongxiao grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground.The soil in this courtyard is neither yellow nor black, but rather whitish, with many impurities in it.

Born with Dao eyes, he can see things that many people cannot see. Ren Daoyuan looked at it for a moment and said, "This should be lime?"

"To be precise, it should be clay made of lime. It is soft, messy, and looks useless. After screening and burning, it is the best building material. The way of heaven has never been exclusive to us Taoists. We humans Everything they do is actually in harmony with the way of heaven, they are all doing the work of making utensils like our Taoist masters." Feng Tong said with a smile.

Ren Daoyuan's brains turned sharply, and he tried his best to keep up with Feng Tongxiao's train of thought. He was right, the so-called tool making was nothing more than strengthening what was already there to obtain what people needed.Taoists never create anything, they just change what already exists.

Soil can be used to burn bricks, lime can be used to build houses, trees can be turned into beams, sand can be turned into glass, ore can be used to extract metals...

These are all in-process utensils, and there is no essential difference from those made by Taoists.If it is necessary to say that the teacher is different, it is that the process of making the utensils is more refined, and the Tao utensils have more powerful abilities, that's all.

Taoism tools and Taoism, to put it bluntly, are really nothing special, everyone is a Taoist, and everyone understands Taoism.

It seems that he didn't say a few words at all, an hour has passed, although the time is very short, Ren Daoyuan feels that he has gained a lot.Feng Tongxiao is indeed a master of the first-order Taoism theory, he sticks to it casually, without any reluctance, and every sentence is a pearl, which makes people suddenly enlightened.

It's a pity, it's a pity, it's just too expensive. In such a short time, I spent [-] gold coins.Ren Daoyuan shook his head and walked out of the courtyard. He knew that this application was submitted too early. If his foundation in Taoism could be more solid, the harvest of this hour would be greatly expanded.

Thinking of the instructors on the course bulletin board, Ren Daoyuan was overjoyed. What he needs is not a difficult reason. I am afraid that even the most ordinary Taoist can solve his doubts. Why should he find such a theory as Feng Tongxiao? Grandmaster.Like Jing Yuan, a tutor with five hundred gold coins per hour is enough to teach himself.

In the next few days, Ren Daoyuan attended classes every day, and the one who invited the most was naturally Jing Yuan, who made his class hours the cheapest.While explaining the basics of Taoism to him, Jing Yuan was also very puzzled, this Junior Brother Ren, did he burn too much money?How would you ask someone to teach you something that everyone knows?

You know, although [-] gold coins per hour is the cheapest in Yundao Abode, but after six hours a day, not only was I exhausted, but Junior Brother Ren even spent [-] gold coins for more than ten days in a row. , Tens of thousands of gold coins flowed into Jingyuan's pocket like flowing water.

Ren Daoyuan was a little disappointed in Haoyu's class hours.The Wuxiu Daoshu school is indeed only a theoretical school. So far, martial artists above the star level have the best grades in learning Taoism, and they are only sixth-level Taoist masters. There is no one who can reach the seventh-level master. level.In other words, martial arts and Taoism only exist on paper, and there is not even a single case of success.
