Chapter 300
"Su Chen, since you are a cultivator, can I ask you a question?"

The mysterious man looked into the distance and asked suddenly.

"Excuse me."

"What is Tao?"

"road?"

I have been watching Taiqing for so long, if I want to ask him what Tao is, then Su Chen can tell him clearly.

You can even recite it backwards!

"As the saying goes, Tao gives birth to one, life gives birth to two..."

"The so-called Tao is the law of everything in the universe."

The man rubbed his chin, then put his hands behind his back.

"Your explanation is too vague. In your own opinion, what do you think is Tao?"

This time, this man can be regarded as bewildered Su Chen.

In my opinion, what is Tao?
Su Chen has been in Taiqing Temple for more than 20 years, and has followed Master for more than ten years. He has read the Book of Changes, memorized the Tao Te Ching, and at the same time heard Master's teachings several times.

But now, when asked about his own understanding of Tao, he was actually speechless.

"It seems that you are not very sure about the path you are taking."

"Then I'm asking you a question, what is the purpose of anything in this world?"

What the fuck?

It was another question, which completely caught Su Chen.

What's wrong with this guy?
Su Chen scratched his head.

"At this moment, he couldn't answer a word.

"Then what I'm asking is more obvious, what is the purpose of people living in this world?"

"What do you mean?"

Then, everything around began to change.

In front of Su Chen were countless newborns who were about to be born.

They cried and passed from the nurse's arms to the expectant father and mother.

"This is the birth of man."

But there was no sincere smile on the child's face as Su Chen imagined, instead, fear and uneasiness appeared on his face.

"Are they really willing to come to this world as their parents thought?"

The family took good care of and raised the child, and soon he grew up to be a child of seven or eight years old.

However, the birth of his younger brother also made him no longer favored by his parents.

Su Chen watched his brother take away his brother's toys, but his parents just told him:

"Your brother is still young, can't you let him go?"

Seeing this scene, the man folded his arms around his chest, looked at the dejected elder brother in the picture, and sighed silently.

"They will never know what the child is feeling at the moment."

"Everyone is telling him that he is not to be stolen in this world."

"But when his younger brother took what belonged to him, his father just told him, 'My brother is still young'."

"Since this is the case, why teach him not to steal, not to rob?"

Seeing this, Su Chen's gaze gradually became dull.

Then the screen changed again.

This time, the boy has turned into a teenager.

Facing the college entrance examination, facing the pressure of the school, and facing the pressure of parents.

All the people around dare not slack off.

"This year's score tangent will only be higher than usual!"

"Now you are in the third year of high school, there is no time for you to have fun anymore."

"You have only one purpose, and that is to try your best to get into a university!"

Although the words are cold, the words spoken are true.

"The college entrance examination, this is something they have to go through."

"Striving hard to get into a good university, and then struggling to get into graduate school or go out to work..."

The man watched all this silently and murmured.

The screen turns again.

Boys have also become men.

She got married, had a job, and had children at the same time.

But what was unfolding in front of Su Chen at this moment was the enormous pressure of the man.

Scolding from the boss.

The salary is fixed.

Wife quarrel.

Dislike of children.

Heavy mortgages.

Parents are getting old.

All of this was like countless mountains weighing on the man's body.

He watched his parents grow old until they died.

At that moment, the eyes were already dry.

Later, the man in the picture developed cancer.

"Why...why I have worked so hard for this family."

"Still no good results!"

"It hurts! I really hurt! Let me die!"

The man wailed on the hospital bed.

The wife bowed her head silently.

Finally, under the watchful eyes of his family, he passed away.

"I can not be reconciled!"

"I'm really not reconciled!"

Looking at his gradually icy body, the man's soul clutched his head.

"I want to do it again, give me another chance! I want to be a new man!"

Soon, the screen changed for the last time.

The crying of the newborn appeared on the screen again, and the scene just demonstrated was about to be repeated again.

Su Chen was completely stunned seeing this scene.

"Now let me ask you again, what is the purpose of human life?"

"What are they doing this for? To end this ordinary life, forget all the suffering, and finally return to the original point?"

"The sound of greed and joy is all illusory..."

"Does it all really make sense?"

The man's series of fatal questions completely captivated Su Chen.

Su Chen just shook her head and murmured:

"No, it must not be like this!"

"However, you have already seen it very clearly."

"They are all suffering in this world, forgetting everything, but also forgetting their mistakes, and returning to this eternal calamity."

"Don't you think that this is the greatest catastrophe in a person?"

"However, all of this is predestined, this is the law, this is the Tao..."

Although these words came from Su Chen's mouth, he didn't have any confidence at the moment.

What the man showed him was the real situation in the world.

That's exactly what most people are going through.

They are confused.

They suffer.

They don't understand why all this is the way it is.

"If this is the way, then why do you practice the way?"

"If all these sufferings are as you said, then Su Chen please tell me."

"What are you doing now for?"

"You say everything, and the way is the way."

"The Dao is to trap the world in such an eternal cycle of reincarnation. Is this the Dao?"

"Wouldn't it be a little too sad?"

When Su Chen heard this, he felt that his feet were about to lose his footing.

He looked at the man in front of him tremblingly.

"who are you?"

"You don't need to know this, you just need to tell me what's on your mind."

The man didn't want to answer Su Chen.

And around the two of them, the bleak life of human beings was replayed again!
Birth, suffering, death, rebirth—

This is the suffering of human beings.

That's how the world is.

Su Chen hugged her head, then looked up at the night sky without any stars.

"So what is the Tao?"

"Master, tell me... what is Tao?"
