Chapter 165: Asking the Mortal Body
This world is so strange. Some people toss and turn and ask for it, while others can only get it but abandon it.
Taoist Master Yizhen is the latter.
Xiao Bailu stood in front of the view and smiled and sent away a star entrepreneur from Zuncheng City. Seeing the other party walking down the mountain step by step, she felt a sharp pain in her heart and the urge to cry.
This is the first entrepreneur he rejected? He didn't have any excessive requests. He just wanted to donate 18 million incense money and establish a throne in the side hall. This kind of thing should not be too common in some Grand Temples. He just couldn't figure out how the master thought? How could he let the rich man not welcome him? He was so anxious!
What happened in Qingfeng Temple is simply out of place with this world. Many lay Buddhists and pilgrims think that it will change the world if they don’t take many days. Even if there is no funding from big entrepreneurs, the Zuncheng government, which has already corrected Qingfeng Temple, will vigorously build this "Ancient Ming Dynasty Building". Taoist Master Yizhen, who has Taoist Quanzhen, will become an unprecedented sect and sect idol of Zuncheng.
But the old Taoist priest insisted on going the opposite way. The fragrance of Qingfeng Temple was cheaper than before. The visiting entrepreneurs shook their heads and left with regret. The Taoist wise man named Bailu was still wearing a tattered green Taoist robe. The Taoist priest in the Taoist temple had a wooden hairpin on his head, and the only one hall and four or five cloud rooms were still...
Confused, puzzled, speculation and suspicion... When all this did not change for several days, even those who once questioned Taoist Ichizhen for fame slowly kept silent and suddenly developed admiration.
The pace of this era is accelerating, everything is changing rapidly, people's hearts are changing, morals are changing, and conscience is changing... When people get used to various changes and regard them as a normal state, when they look back suddenly, they find that there is a person wearing a cloth dress in a dim light, smiling with a calm mind, and refusing to change, and then they suddenly realize that sometimes persistence is so respectable, and it turns out that refusing to change is also a state of mind.
This suddenly became a major scenery in Zuncheng City. There are already many lay Buddhists, pilgrims and even enthusiastic people waiting outside Qingfeng Temple every day. The greatest pleasure is to see the storm of Zuncheng coming happily and leaving in a dim mood. Then look at the disciples in Guan who are still poor, and can't help but raise their thumbs up, "This is the true practice, no better than those fake monks and fake Taoists who make money in the name of Taoist ancestors and gods."
Taoist Master Yizhen's reputation gradually spread far and even Xu Changsheng, who came to Qingfeng Temple, heard this story, and suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
Priest Yizhen made a relationship before he got up, which made him who was still wandering in ignorance and a serious identity and a right path to continue. The teacher's kindness is profound, but that's all. In fact, Priest Yizhen did not really help him on the road of cultivation, and was even far inferior to the old madman Ge Wuyou and the mysterious monk in yellow.
Xu Changsheng naturally had a desire to repay Taoist Yizhen, but he did not think about asking him. This time, he used the power of Chen Ning and Xuqing to use their reputation to help Qingfeng Temple and support his mentor. In fact, he was planning to let his mentor get something and make Qingfeng Temple a first-class famous temple in the world.
However, along the way, especially after entering Zuncheng, Xu Changsheng had already become somewhat suspicious of himself. When he entered Qingfeng Temple and met Chen Ning and Master Xu Qing, after listening to their remarks, Xu Changsheng felt unconscious.
Reflecting on his previous thoughts, when several wealthy people visited and the national father came to ask for it, he became a little fluttery and decided to set the "Financial Couple Law" and ranked first in wealth. Although he was not included in the devil's way, he was also a little restless and impatient. If he abandoned his Taoist character, is he really completely correct?
My teacher is not a real person with magic power, let alone compared to him, a Taoist genius who has survived two great catastrophes in a row, and has shown the magical power of the heavenly beings, and is expected to be a god of immortals in the future. But why did the words my teacher say are like a night drum and a morning bell, making it difficult for a long time to calm down?
Before, I only thought about the kindness of the world, and thought about repaying my mentor with fame and profit, but I never treated my mentor as a "senior expert" like an old madman, and I never thought that I was wrong when I asked him if I was wrong?
Walking into the cloud room of Taoist Yizhen, Xu Changsheng wanted to kneel down, but was pulled by Taoist Yizhen and pressed it on the opposite cushion. He looked at him with a smile: "Although you are my disciple, you are the "Tiangang Dazhen Man" that President Chen and fellow Taoist Xu Qing also want to praise. His cultivation is deep and he has already been a hundred times better than being a teacher. How can you still need to give such a great gift?
It is said that being a teacher has a name but not a reality. Although he nominally accepts you as his disciple, he cannot pass on the true method of practicing truth and entering the Tao. You are benefiting from heaven and earth. Even if you want to recognize the master, it is the only one that the heaven and earth should be your master." After saying that, he still looked at him with a smile, just like his parents who saw their long-returned children. The more they looked at him, the more they liked him.
"Disciple asks my teacher to preach."
Xu Changsheng's face turned solemn and he bowed down on the cushion.
"A teacher is just a mortal. How can you preach to you, the great real person? But if you really want to listen to your teacher's teachings, you can say a few words. If you get it, you may be for you or for me."
Taoist Master Yizhen looked at Xu Changsheng for a few glances, and his expression was a little complicated and unspeakable. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Heaven and earth benefit you, but it can also harm you. You need to know that the darling of heaven and earth, and the son of Jiyun, cannot achieve great success, and will definitely suffer great defeat. As a teacher, he is a mortal, and he cannot see through your body without mortality. He can only ask you one question, my disciple, can you be anxious?"
"The disciple is very anxious. He once said, "Heaven and Earth benefit me, and I benefit all living beings" during the Zhengtian tribulation. He also saw a monk in yellow in the relics, saying that the great disaster is coming! This time, he met by chance at Guigan Cheng's family. There was a ghost king covetous in the world. With the power of his disciples today, he was not sure to win him, so the disciple is really anxious!"
"I can tell the truth that things are slow and things are smooth, and things are urgent and things are in chaos? Therefore, things can be urgent and the mind must be calm, and the urgent can be accomplished.
This means that the more anxious you are, the slower your progress will be, and you will even be disturbed by the inner demons. Once the inner demons invade, it is difficult for you to know the true nature. If you only know your urgent needs, things will be defeated. It is better to let go of your mind and think clearly, and you will travel thousands of miles without realizing it, and urgent things can be accomplished.
Being a teacher is not a true person who has obtained the Dharma. This experience is a result of decades of purity and the gains of doing nothing. If you can help me, you will be great good.”
"This principle is not difficult, but why can't I even think about it before my mentor said it?
From meeting the old turtle, to subjugating the old dragon, the two elders respected it, and then met Cheng Yuanyuan, fighting Cheng Tianlong, thinking about the ghost king...Along the way, I didn't seem to have time or opportunity to rest or meditate? Or something is growing, which makes me feel tall and the best real person in the world, and I don't want to think about it at all..."
Xu Changsheng suddenly felt shocked and looked at his mentor, Taoist Ichizhen in horror. Seeing that his mentor was nodding and smiling at him, his smile seemed like the best medicine to calm his heart.
Even when he passed the two great catastrophes of Zhengtian that day and made Taoist Chen Ning and Xu Qing respected the "Tiangang Dazhenren", he had never been so calm in his heart.
"Master, I want to go into seclusion for a few days..."
“Great Good.”
