I have a role in the heavens

Zhao Wuhao did not argue with Li Manchuan. He was a proud man. He was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, enough to be called the best in the world. If he continued to be humble, it would seem a bit hypocritical and would make people look down on him. .

"My dear, Zhao Wuhao, I came to the capital this time because I wanted to be admitted to the academy, find a future, and earn a living!"

At this point, Zhao Wuhao paused, causing Li, who was listening attentively, to slowly cast a curious look, as if asking why he didn't continue.

At this time, the patter of spring rain had stopped, the weather had cleared up, and the breeze was blowing. There was a bit of chill, which made Zhao Wuhao, who was wearing thin clothes, shrink his thin body. Zhao Wuhao seemed to want to relieve his embarrassment and held up his arms. He put away his paper umbrella, rubbed his hands, and said with evasive eyes.

"I just heard that the academy does not include room and board, and requires thirty taels of silver per month. I am poor. Although I have full confidence in being admitted to the academy, I cannot afford such an expensive fee. I can only come to visit the academy steward with a shy face. I would like to ask for convenience and enter the academy to teach!"

Li Manman was stunned when he heard the words. He suspected that he was hearing hallucinations and showed an expression of disbelief. How could there be such a person in the world? Because he couldn't afford the expensive cost of studying, he wanted to directly apply for a teaching job. Not only did he not have to spend any money, but every day I can still make a fortune every month. This calculation is really accurate.

"But it's interesting!"

Li Manman said secretly in his heart, with a smile on his face and nodded. He did not refuse Zhao Wuhao's unreasonable request and readily agreed.

"Sir, your skills are astonishing. He has reached the state of enlightenment, so he is naturally qualified to become a teacher in the academy!"

"Thank you very much, Mr. Da!"

Zhao Wuhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, finally solving the problem. With a smile on his face, he continued speaking unceremoniously.

"It's just that I don't bother the two masters. It's not easy to live in Chang'an. I asked Mr. Da to arrange a dormitory for me. I have run out of money. If you don't help me, I will have to live on the street!"

Li Manchuan did not refuse, there was no trace of impatience on his face, and his voice was gentle and approachable, making people feel comfortable and like a spring breeze.

"Mr. Zhao, there is no need to worry. The academy has arranged a building for teaching. You can move your luggage here at any time and live in the academy!"

Zhao Wuhao stretched out his hand and pointed at the baggage behind him. The baggage was not big and could not hold much, with a bright smile on his face.

"I don't have much, so I have brought all my luggage with me. Now I can move into the academy!"

Li slowly burst into laughter. Not only did he not feel disgusted with Zhao Wuhao's behavior, but he found Zhao Wuhao very interesting, with an open-mindedness and willfulness that ordinary people did not have.

"Now that sir is ready, I will go and arrange accommodation for you!"

After saying that, Li slowly disappeared in front of Zhao Wuhao, his appearance was astonishing.

"Is it the realm of no distance? It's a pity that it's not the realm of no distance!"

There were ripples in Zhao Wuhao's calm eyes, his face showed a hint of thoughtfulness, and he commented in a low voice.

In this world, people believe in Haotian, and Haotian's way is known as the only spiritual path in the world. Haotian's light shines on the world, and all things in the world can breathe with it. Therefore, Haotian is the beginning of everything, the supreme and unquestionable only one. gods.

According to Haotian Dao, human beings are one of the genus of all things. They live in ignorance and travel between heaven and earth. Only when Haotian occasionally receives revelations do they begin to understand the principles of natural creation. Therefore, they use their thoughts to control the vitality of heaven and earth and perform all kinds of mysterious things. This is For practice.

The road to spiritual practice is long, complicated and arduous, and it tests your will the most. This road is divided into five stages, which is what the world calls the five realms.

The first state is called the first awareness, which refers to the time when the practitioner's thoughts are released from the sea of ​​​​Qi and the snowy mountains, and the existence of the breath of heaven and earth is clearly understood.

The second realm is called perception. At this stage, practitioners can touch the vitality flowing and floating between heaven and earth, and can live in harmony with it, and even have some sensory communication and contact.

The third state is called non-confusion, which means that the practitioner can initially understand the laws of the flow of vitality between heaven and earth and utilize them. The so-called sword masters and talisman masters in the world generally refer to this category.

The fourth realm is called Dongxuan. Practitioners who enter this realm have been able to integrate their consciousness with the vitality of heaven and earth. For the practitioner, it means that he can directly attack the enemy through his own consciousness. In this realm If you are immersed in it for a long time, you may be able to do some particularly mysterious methods.

The fifth realm is called knowing destiny. The so-called knowing destiny means knowing destiny. Practitioners who enter this realm no longer only understand the rules of the flow of heaven and earth's vitality on the surface, but essentially master the rules of the movement of heaven and earth's vitality, understand the connection between Haotian and all things in nature, and understand the world clearly. origin. Only those who have entered this realm may be called truly enlightened.

Of course, the path of spiritual practice is never-ending, long and tortuous, and there are naturally higher realms above the five realms. Legend has it that there are many mysterious realms beyond knowing one's destiny, but there are only two that have actually appeared in the classics, one is Apocalypse and the other is Infinite Realm.

The so-called apocalypse means that practitioners can directly listen to Haotian's revelations, worship the Taoist magic with piety, and temporarily borrow the power and light of Haotian in the realm of emptiness. Haotian shines on the world, even if it is a ray of power and light, If it is placed in the body of a practitioner, you can also imagine what kind of great realm and great power it is.

As for the realm of no distance, the classics only record that such a realm has appeared in the human world, but there is no specific description. There is only one sentence from Liao Liao to describe it: follow the heart's desire without distance, and the saint's thoughts can reach thousands of miles away. How magnificent this is.

In fact, in addition to these two realms, there are also Buddhism's immeasurable and annihilation, the Demon Sect's Heavenly Demon Realm, and the Taoist Sect's Pure and Quiet Realm, all of which are not weaker than Apocalypse and Infinite Realm. These realms are all above the five realms, and each has its own wonderful image, but there is no strong or weak distinction between them.

According to legend, there is a more wonderful realm above all realms. Even the oldest classics do not record it. They are only passed down orally in one temple, one temple, one door and two floors. That is the immortality of the Demon Sect and the immortality of the Buddhism. Nirvana, the emergence of Taoism, the transcendence of the academy.

There is a higher level above the wonderful realm, which can be called the Great Way of Wuwei. You can truly follow your heart's desires without exceeding the rules. It is the realm of saints and the realm of no rules. From ancient times to the present, those who can enter this realm in the world are as if they have never heard of it. Pass.

Although the ancient proverb says that a thousand-year-old saint will come, but there has been no saint in the world for countless years. Who would have thought that there is such a person in the academy.

Although the world believes that practice is a gift given to mankind by Haotian, if you look to the end, whether it is the Taoist sect's obsession with immortality, the Buddhist sect's desire to reach the other side, or the devil's sect's crazy desire for immortality, In fact, they all want to break through Haotian's restrictions on humans step by step.

After the practitioners break through the five realms, they have the opportunity to create their own new rules. In fact, it means having their own world. There is no essential difference from the Demon Sect's concept of a world for itself. Neither of them is allowed by the way of heaven or Haotian. .

In the Haotian world, no one can cross the five realms except with Haotian's permission. Once they cross, Haotian will impose heavenly punishment.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, Li slowly appeared in front of Zhao Wuhao again, with a gentle smile on his face, and said to Zhao Wuhao.

"Mr. Zhao, please come with me!"

Zhao Wuhao looked at the kind-hearted Li Manman, shook his head slightly and said.

"Mr. Big, you don't need to be so polite. It makes people feel distant. You can just call me by my name!"

Li Manman was an honest and honest gentleman. He was stunned when he heard this and said thoughtfully.

"In that case, don't call me Mr. Da, just call me Li Manman!"

"Then please ask Li Manman to lead the way!"

Zhao Wuhao didn't seem to know what politeness was, so he directly changed his address to Li Manmandan, acted a little impatiently, and took the lead in walking in front of Li Manmandan, which made Li Manmanman stunned, and shook his head with a smile. ,Followed by.

The academy is worthy of being the center of the Tang Dynasty. It covers a very large area and the place where teachers and students live is also very spacious. It has an independent courtyard. The house is bright and clean. It is equipped with log furniture, incense burners, etc. Binana is the best inn in Chang'an City. The house is not bad either. If you rent it out, you will need at least dozens of taels of silver per month, which makes Zhao Wuhao very satisfied.

"Zhao, Wuhao, the academy prepares three sets of clothes for the teachers every quarter, and someone will bring them to you later!"

Li Manman didn't seem to be used to calling Zhao Wuhao's name directly. He paused for a moment, glanced at Zhao Wuhao's somewhat white clothes, and said very naturally.

"That's good! The teachers at the academy are treated well, so I don't have to say anything!"

Zhao Wuhao didn't seem to know the meaning of politeness. If Li Manchuan hadn't taken the initiative to talk about it, he might have asked.

The smile on Li Manman's face became stronger and stronger. He liked Zhao Wuhao's character very much. He was straightforward and unpretentious, straightforward and not shy. Everything seemed to be natural. He was bright and generous. Such people were very rare and made people happy no matter what. Can't hate it.

"If you see if there is anything missing, just bring it up and I will have it prepared for you!"

Li Manman also knew that Zhao Wuhao was probably in a tight situation now, so he thought very carefully and asked Zhao Wuhao directly.

Zhao Wuhao glanced at the layout of the room, dining table, chairs, bed, study, pen, ink, paper and inkstones. It seemed that everything was lacking. He had never lived in such a comfortable room since he was reincarnated into this world. He shook his head slightly, He spoke.

"The room is well decorated and there is nothing missing. What's the matter with food?"

"There is a cafeteria in the academy. If you don't want to join in the fun, I can have three meals delivered to you on time every day!"

When Zhao Wuhao heard this, a bright smile appeared on his face. The salary of teaching in the academy was really good. This life was more comfortable than that of a landlord or a wealthy person.

The academy is the most sacred place in the Tang Dynasty, and the teaching status of those who can serve in the academy is very high. The reason is very simple. It makes sense to have a big fist.

There is no doubt that the academy has the biggest fist in the world, Master. This being who knows how far he has traveled on the path of cultivation may have truly reached the realm of Wuju mentioned by Zhao Wuhao. He is a true living saint. His realm has long gone beyond the human world, but Master He attaches great importance to the human world, so he lives in the human world.

Master is the founder of the Tang Dynasty and the guardian of the Tang Dynasty. He is recognized by everyone as the strongest master in the world and the only one who is regarded as an opponent by Haotian. The Master is a legendary existence, the strongest person in the world and the guardian of the world. He has reached the realm of no rules and can reach the highest realm through cultivation for mankind.

The absence of rules means the absence of distance. The absence of rules means ignoring all rules. The Master used the power of one person to forcibly divide the inner and outer worlds. From then on, the great practitioners in the world did not dare to interfere too much with the world. They were invincible in the world and the strongest under Haotian. By.

After Li slowly settled Zhao Wuhao, he said goodbye and returned to the back hill of the academy. It is also the most unknown place in the world and a place that countless people yearn for. It is commonly known as the second floor of the academy, where the Master teaches his disciples.

An old man was lying on the couch. This old man had gray hair and a tall figure. He could even be called burly. The couch was a bit too small for a strong man to lie on. The old man bent his knees so that he could He didn't stick his feet out of the couch. When he saw the eldest disciple Li Manmang coming slowly, he stood up, rubbed his waist, stretched his arms, and said helplessly.

"You are good at everything, but there is one thing that makes me dissatisfied. You are always slow in everything you do. I am so anxious!"

"Has that boy been settled just now?"

This old man with an irritable personality is the strongest person in the world, Master. He is a being who has reached the realm of no rules. He has a somewhat anxious look on his face. He does not look like a saint who has attained the truth, but rather has a bad temper. general.

"Mr. Zhao has been placed!"

Li slowly and leisurely walked up to the Master, saluted respectfully, and answered the Master's questions.

"Mr. Zhao?"

The master looked at the eldest disciple strangely, wondering where this title came from.

"Mr. Zhao's painting skills are amazing and he has reached the state of enlightenment. He can be called the best painter in the world!"

There was a look of surprise on Li Manman's face, and his gentle eyes couldn't help but widen a little, which surprised the master, and showed a bit of suspicion and curiosity on his face.

"Number one in painting?!"

"This title is not easy to come by! It is a very heavy burden for an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy! What kind of amazing painting did that boy paint that earned you such praise?"

"The paper umbrella he is holding has a red plum blossom stepping on the snow painted on it!"

"Just a red plum?"

A strange look flashed in the Master's eyes, and he looked at his proud disciple in puzzlement. Why did Li Manchu admire and even worship a red plum tree so much?

"It's just a red plum!"

Li nodded slowly and fiercely, which was very rare for him with a slow personality. Even in front of his wife, he always looked tepid and rarely so excited.

The master's face became more interested and curious when he looked at the eldest disciple who was acting so strangely. The body sitting on the couch leaned forward slightly, giving people a sense of oppression that the world was approaching, which made Li slowly endure it. He couldn't help but lean back slightly, as if he couldn't bear the power of God.

"What's so strange about this red plum? It actually makes you admire this young man as the number one painter!"

Li slowly narrowed his eyes slightly, his mind seemed to be working rapidly, thinking about organizing language to express what he saw and felt.

"That red plum tree is charming and proud, agile and elegant, with a strong character, proud of the snow and frost, giving people a sense of freedom that does not follow the rules and order, just like"

Li slowly said this, paused for a moment, frowned, as if he didn't know how to describe the feeling in words, his eyes moved rapidly, and finally stopped on the master, with a hint of surprise on his face, and he exclaimed.

"It's like the feeling my teacher gave me, follow your heart and never go beyond the rules!"

As soon as these words came out, the master's expression changed slightly and became a bit more solemn, a light flashed in his eyes, he stroked his beard with his broad palm, and said thoughtfully.

"It seems that this boy is very interesting, but I underestimated him!"

"I looked at him. All the seventeen qi orifices of the Snow Mountain Qi Sea were naturally opened. Before he practiced, his mind power could leave the body. He was extremely powerful. I thought he was a genius in cultivation. I didn't expect that his state of mind was far beyond that of ordinary monks. This level of qualification is no less than that of your junior uncle!"

Having said this, the master seemed a little sad, with a bit of regret on his face, and his body bent a bit, as if Li Manman's little uncle was a name that should not be mentioned.

Ke Haoran, the junior uncle at the back of the academy, a genius through the ages, a mythical and legendary figure, the only monster without the obstacle of breaking the mirror. He entered Chang'an at the age of 16. Due to his abnormal talent, he is the only one in the world who has seventeen orifices in the snow mountain, air and sea. He was a genius of Tong, and was accepted as his junior disciple by the Master. He later created his own Haoran Qi, and was imprisoned in Siguo Cliff by the Master for three years. He realized how to imitate the Haoran Qi to create the divine brilliance of Haotian, and use the sword to open the way for one method to pass through all methods. After coming out of the mountain, he rode a black donkey and entered the world. He became an academy and walked around the world. He killed all the strong men in the world with a blue steel sword in his hand. He killed his lover because of the demon sect Liansheng. He broke into the demon sect's mountain gate with a single sword and destroyed the demon with a single sword. Zong. Inside the Demon Sect's mountain gate, the Haoran sword was used to transform the cage into a cage, trapping Liansheng in it to avenge the murder of his love.

After that, he returned to the academy to cross the cliff and killed many challengers. Then he left the academy and broke into the temple. He was besieged by many strong men from the Taoist sect, including some strong men from the Apocalypse realm who had broken through the five realms. They were all defeated by Ke Haoran. The master of Zhishou Temple They were also defeated by Ke Haoran. They couldn't even touch the corners of Ke Haoran's clothes. After defeating all the strong men of the Taoist sect, he broke through several realms. Feeling that he was invincible in the world, he drew his sword and climbed to the sky. In the end, he was killed by heaven in the process of fighting with heaven.

The so-called practice is to place your thoughts on the snow mountain in front of your chest and the sea of ​​​​qi behind your waist. There are seventeen qi orifices around the snow mountain sea of ​​​​qi, just like the Qianfan caves at the bottom of Zhongli Mountain. The caves welcome the wind and receive water, sob and make sounds. For a wonderful song, there are those who call out and those who respond below. Only in this way can heaven and earth understand people's wishes and echo each other.

The opening, closing or occlusion of the organs and qi orifices of the human body are formed in the womb and are brought about by nature. They cannot be changed no matter how much practice you practice the day after tomorrow. Therefore, there is a saying that the so-called practice is just picking up the gift given to mankind by Haotian.

Among the billions of people in the world, it is extremely rare for those who have seventeen orifices to penetrate the thirteen orifices in the snow-capped mountains and seas of air. Those geniuses who have access to the fifteen or six orifices are favored by heaven. They are like a pie falling from the sky while walking casually on the road. Slumped.

And Xueshan Qihai is a person with full access to the seventeen Qi orifices. For all eternity, there have only been two people, Ke Haoran and Zhao Wuhao. Now that Ke Haoran has fallen, there is only one Zhao Wuhao in the world. Even if he is as stunning as the Master, he will remain forever. The first person's qualifications are still not as good as Zhao Wuhao's.

"That's why I asked you to go out and put him in place. I didn't expect that he could convince you. This is a result I didn't expect before!"

It turns out that Li Manman's placement of Zhao Wuhao was the master's arrangement. No wonder he agreed to all Zhao Wuhao's unreasonable requests with great ease and without any hesitation.
