I Am Immortal

  Chapter 57 Walking Alone

  Qi Wuhuo quietly looked at the misty rain in front of him, and did not doubt the authenticity of the teacher's words.

Since many seniors are sinking in this world, the teacher just waits for them to self-study and realize themselves, and wait for them to recall the teachings of the year in order to find their true heart, then I will not be different, the old man and him walked together a little On the higher hillside, when I turned around, I saw the wind and rain covering the tomb.

  Yanlong Hanshan is endless as far as the eye can see, as if the sky and the earth are connected.

  The sense of desolation on the avenue arises spontaneously.

The old man said gently: "Those who seek the next vehicle, practice until the three flowers gather on the top, the five qi are at the top, the three thousand merits are complete, and the eight hundred actions are sufficient, they can be immortals, called emperors, and heavenly gods; those who seek the vehicle will be Follow the road pointed out to you by the teacher, and you will not be hindered along the way, and you will go through three disasters, seven calamities and eight disasters, and you will be able to reach the point of Xuandu."

   "But that is the path that the old man pointed out to you after all, you can't surpass being a teacher."

   "If you take the road of excellence..."

  The old man's voice paused slightly.

  Then said gently: "Maybe you can see the back of the old man."

  Seeing that Qi Wuhuo seemed about to speak, the old man raised his hand to stop him, and said with a gentle smile:

   "However, you don't have to give your answer now, even if you say it, the old man won't listen."

   "You just need to keep your own choice in your heart."

  "When they were young, most of them were proud and arrogant, with the ambition to rise to the top of the clouds."

   "If you haven't seen the world and seen thousands of sentient beings, these words can't be taken as true after all."

The old man suddenly teased and joked: "Anyway, no matter which path you choose in the end, you are not qualified to make a choice if you are not in the realm of three flowers gathering at the top and five qi at the top. ...The old man is just saying to listen to you."

  The young Taoist couldn't help but look stagnant, and then saw that the old man's sleeve robe was wet from the rain, shook his head, raised his hand to help the old man tidy up his clothes, and said:

   "The teacher is really like a child."

  The old man couldn't help laughing out loud:

   "You look like an old man too."

  The young Taoist in the blue water cloud suit was helpless, but there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

  The old man laughed and sighed, stroked his beard and said, "Now it's time for you to know my name."

  The old man looked gentle and said:

   "You are too close to me."

   "Xuanmen is supreme and supreme."

  Qi Wuhuo said: "I know."

  The old man was startled for a while, and then smiled freely: "Yes, you could have guessed it a long time ago."

The young Taoist replied: "Although I don't know much about Taoism, the gods of the Sanqing are worshiped by the common people, so I know that I can use this tone to comment on all things and gods, and treat the two Taoist ancestors Shangqing and Yuqing equally. If it is not a madman who is arrogant to the extreme, then there is only the Taishang lineage who is also one of the Taoist ancestors of the Sanqing."

  The old man nodded gently, then looked at the distant scenery, and said:

   "However, after you leave as a teacher, you must not reveal your master's heritage, and you must not reveal your Dao name."

   "[Tao name] is what the teacher expects of you, but it is not your own identity."

   "Identity is something that you have to [self-cultivate], just like cultivation, you need to [self-cultivate]."

The old man's voice was gentle and flat, but the words he said had a force of courage: "After all, if you tell your identity, no one will give in to you inside and outside the Three Realms. Heaven, talent and earth are treasures, and whatever you want will be given to you." If you encounter difficulties in practice, the gods of the nine heavens and ten earths will help you, the emperors of the five directions will help you, and the twenty-eight mansions will respect you."

   "What you see is biased, and what you practice is smooth, then maybe you will be able to reach the state of three flowers gathering at the top very quickly."

   "However, this kind of practice is nothing more than the accumulation of mana."

   "The mind is immature, or like a house flower. Although it is in full bloom, it is hard to withstand the frost and snow. It is just a [thing for appreciation], not my disciple."

   "If you dote on a disciple like Yuqing, you wouldn't do that."

"On the contrary, Shangqing's ears are soft, his temperament is open-minded, and he chooses inaction over inaction. Since inaction, then I naturally have everything I can't do. Say a few words, talk about human relationships, and he will give you some fate, which is unknown."

   "However, the disciples cultivated in this way can't even pass the eight difficulties, and even have no hope of reaching the realm of earth immortals, let alone higher ones?"

The old man pressed the palm of the young Taoist's head and rubbed it, and said expectantly: "Only your own strength and status can make the practitioners in the world respect you, respect you, fear you, and respect you. You are yours alone." My Taoist Xuanwei, Taoist Lord Wuhuo, not that little disciple from the Taishang lineage, can Wuhuo understand?"

   "Yuyang's five-hundred-year plan has been accomplished, and he is a teacher of people, a national teacher, and a heavenly teacher."

"Yu Miao ascended to the sky and fought against the heavenly generals all the way up and down the Thunder Mansion. One of the thirty-six Thunder Generals of the Yuxu Thunder Mansion had to personally fight to defeat them. They all relied on themselves, and they didn't even know I have never used my Dao name for the identity of the old man, Yumiao only found out the identity of the old man after being rescued by Xuandu, so she is willing to let go, so I am willing to wait for her."

   "Speaking of which, there is another brother who wants you to meet yourself."

  The old man took out a jade slip and handed it to him, and whispered a few words, the two looked into the distance, and the young man took the jade slip.

  The old man said gently: "The teacher will guide you in."

   "What is it for? Is there another troublemaker who dominates the Three Realms?"

   "That's not my disciple."

  "Since accepting disciples and preaching, we always expect disciples to come to us."

   "In fact, master and apprentice are also a kind of Taoist friends."

   "But I don't want to just have one more vassal. If you really come to the step where you are surrounded by immortals and gods, it is the old man who ruined your natural Dao seed. I did something wrong."

  The young Taoist could hear the infinite expectations in these words.

  The sky was dark and the wind and rain were heavy. The old man raised his hand and pointed to the road ahead.

  My disciple still has countless people to meet, and there are hundreds of thousands of miles away in the world of mortals. As a teacher, I will wait for you in the farthest place.

This road is not straight, not clean, and more muddy. It extends into the endless wind and rain, misty and hazy. The old man seemed to let him walk alone, but in the end he said gently: "Wuhuo, finally come Let’s go together for a while.”

  Qi Wuhuo nodded: "Yes."

  The old man held an umbrella to shield him from the wind and rain. An old man and a young man, both wearing Taoist robes, walked forward.

   "Speaking of which, there are always disciplines in the Taoist sect, and only those who receive the precepts are the disciples of my Taoist sect."

   "There are three precepts, five precepts, ten precepts, twenty-seven precepts, one hundred and eighty precepts, three hundred great precepts, and one thousand two hundred correct precepts."

   "The purpose is to prevent evil and prevent evil, protect righteousness and destroy evil."

"However, this is the precept of action, and there is another precept of inaction and no gain. The requirements for practitioners are still a bit high. [If you know the law, after all, it is emptiness, it is called the righteous precept]. It is possible to uphold the righteous precepts. This is inaction. If you don’t uphold it, you won’t commit any crimes. If you don’t commit crimes, you can refrain from upholding it. Now it’s not enough..."

   "Finally, I will give you a commandment."

   "This is the old man's commandment to you, and it is also the old man's expectation from you."

   "It is the request of the disciples of the Supreme One."

   "It's also your original heart, your obsession, and your catastrophe that even Huang Liang Yimeng never melted away."

   "So this is the law that only you have to keep."

  The old man held an umbrella, looked at the young man next to him, restrained his gentle smile, and said in a stern tone with a vague and remote tone:

   "My disciple Xuanwei, practice the Dharma."

   "Actions and deeds, always in harmony with the heart of heaven, always do great kindness, and overcome adversity."

   "Can you hold it?"

  After a long time, the boy replied, "Yes."

  The old man laughed loudly: "It's my disciple."

  ………

This heavy rain was majestic. After a long, long time passed, many spiritual beings in the mountains here realized that their vitality had returned to normal, not the same as before, and came back cautiously. In the wind and rain, someone came with an umbrella, they all held their breath subconsciously, and saw the young Taoist man wearing a blue water cloud suit, with cloud sleeves hanging down, carrying a sword box, walking slowly along the road alone.

   At this time, I have already opened an umbrella to cover myself from the wind and rain.

  The young man's body is straight.

  The avenue is bleak.

  I walk alone.
