The Drifting Ping Organization was originally an organization established spontaneously by casual cultivators. Most of the members initially came together to facilitate private transactions and help each other.

But I don't know when it started, there was a voice in the organization complaining about the injustice of the world, thinking that the sect suppressed Sanxian and restricted the development of Sanxian, which led to the deviation of the entire organization.

There are more and more cynics, who advocate separation from the practice world, and the voice of forming a school of its own is also getting louder. In addition, there are various internal and external reasons such as a major change in the management of the organization, and the decline of the major sects before the recovery of spiritual energy. The organization has quietly changed from an ordinary Sanxian organization to an existence that is similar to evil ways and is opposed to the entire practice world.

"I'm an orphan, because I have a good foundation, I was absorbed into the Piaoping organization when I was very young and became a peripheral member." Que Tianyin briefly explained her identity, "Later, when a second-rate alchemist in the organization was studying soul refining medicine, Seeing me, he insisted that my physique is suitable for medicine, and brought me to him to be his drug slave. He said he was a drug slave, but he was actually a material. Whenever he figured out the formula, I would die."

"It was Yuliang who saved me."

His tone was as calm as a pool of stagnant water, and he could hardly hear any emotion, but everyone present could hear the anger boiling under the stagnant water, once it erupted, it would be like a prairie fire.

"The current Piaoping organization has long run counter to its original intention, and is gradually becoming a cancer in the practice world." Zhang Yuliang stroked the fan bone, and her long eyelashes cast a shadow in the bottom of her eyes, "I plan to use this method to draw out They, wreck it or root it out, who joins?"

The small red shade building is so quiet that you can hear a pin drop.

Cheng Dan looked at everyone's expressions coldly.Chu Tiankuo remained calm, the Lu family sisters were slightly hesitant, and Wang Sheng Zen was calm. No matter what their real thoughts were, at least they did not express any intention of rejecting them on the surface. Presumably they would also participate in this operation.

Sure enough, Lu Biran soon expressed his opinion on behalf of Shushan Jianzong: "We are here to get together to completely solve the Piaoping organization. Since the opportunity comes to us, we will not push it away. How to do it is up to you Just say it."

"Then I will thank the Shushan Sword Sect and the two of you for your help on behalf of other cultivators who are new to the practice world." Zhang Yuliang politely cupped his hands to express his gratitude.

Lu Biran sneered and said goodbye, it was Lu Biyuan who bowed back on her behalf, and Zhang Yuliang didn't bother with her.

After the Shushan Sword Sect made its statement, Wangshengchan walked slowly to Zhang Yuliang, to be more precise, walked up to Que Tianyin, pointed his fingers and said with a smile: "The Buddha loves the world and saves all living beings. Members of the Piaoping Organization are among the world's people , I hope that during the siege, a few of them can save their lives without affecting the overall situation."

The breeze passed through the hall, Que Tianyin's broken hair brushed her eyebrows and eyes, and she was calm and peaceful: "The fate of a person is like a candle in the wind. One candle and one stage, and countless sparks connected, is destiny. To me, the Piaoping organization is The flames on the other side are far away, and I have neither love nor hatred, so don't care about my opinion."

Wang Shengchan suddenly showed his face: "Your Excellency has roots of wisdom."

Hearing this, Cheng Dan's heart skipped a beat, he almost thought that he was going to say "Follow me into Buddhism to practice", but luckily he didn't.

"Cough." Chu Tiankuo, who had been silent all this time, saw that everyone agreed, and couldn't help covering his lips and coughing lightly, "Linlang Pavilion still needs to consider the matter of the Piaoping organization. Can you allow me and other people in charge in the pavilion to think about it for a while? ?”

Zhang Yuliang turned around and wanted to exchange eyes with Que Tianyin, but seeing that he was making eye contact with Wang Shengchan, he secretly rolled his eyes and asked, "How long will it take you?"

"One day is enough." Chu Tiankuo said, "Everyone can rest here for a while, and I will give you an answer tomorrow."

"What do Miss Lu think?" Zhang Yuliang asked again.

After all, this is not their own business, it is still necessary to ask the opinions of the Lu family sisters.

"Pavilion Master Chu can do as he pleases." Lu Biyuan readily agreed.

After the goal was achieved, Chu Tiankuo bowed in the direction of Zhang Yuliang and Lu Biyuan to express his gratitude, and then turned into light smoke and flew out of the gate.

This simple impromptu gathering ended here temporarily, Lu Biran yawned and pulled Lu Biyuan upstairs, saying that he wanted to catch up on his beauty sleep, and there were only Cheng Dan and the others left in the hall.

At that time, Que Tianyin and Wang Shengchan were sitting together, and you began to talk about the profound and mysterious principles of Taoism and Zen.Sometimes they refer to each other, and sometimes they argue with each other. At first glance, it seems very simple, but when you think about it carefully, it seems to be quite profound. Every word seems to have countless meanings, which is extremely scary when you think about it carefully.

Cheng Dan and Zhang Yuliang listened to the two of them talking, and moved to each other's side step by step. They didn't recover until their shoulders bumped into each other, looked at each other, and smiled knowingly.

— Sit down and listen together?

Cheng Dan blinked.

——It’s what you want.

Zhang Yuliang shook his fan.

I have confirmed the eyes, it is someone who wants to practice together.

So the two each brought a futon and placed them on the left and right sides of Que Tianyin and Wangshengchan, forming a square with them, with sharp edges and corners, and listened carefully to the book with their chins in their hands... Oh no, listen to their debate.

Anyway, idle is idle.

……

"...Buddhas cross the world, Taoists cross the mind."

The moonlight swayed on the window sill in the evening wind, beside the futon, a silhouette of a red maple stained with autumn dew was drawn.The candlelight swayed, and the four silent figures appeared ethereal in the eloquent and moving narration, and almost seemed to freeze into a painting.

Wang Shengchan put down his seal hand and slowly told the story of Shiqiao Chan.

"Ananda would like to turn into a stone bridge and be exposed to 500 years of wind, 500 years of sun, and 500 years of rain. I just ask her to pass by the bridge and fulfill that encounter that should not have happened. Some people say that the great wish of crossing the world is still in Ananda's heart. Nothing compares to the glimpse on the stone bridge, he has lost his Zen mind and fallen into the world of mortals. Do you think so?"

For Wang Shengchan's last question, he asked not only Que Tianyin who was opposite him, but also Cheng Dan and Zhang Yuliang who had been listening for most of the day.

"I haven't got that perfect side, so I can't answer." Que Tianyin shook her head.

Cheng Dan raised his long eyelashes, and his dark eyes shone with fragments of light, like a river floating with lanterns during the Lantern Festival, quietly betting on Zhang Yuliang, and vaguely looking at the lantern of fate through him.

"I have never turned into a stone bridge, but I have been a person who walked on the bridge." He smiled slightly, and thousands of memories rushed to his heart in an instant, and Zhang Yuliang was in every picture, "In the Zen of the Stone Bridge Said, after the meeting is parting, from now on Ananda will be with the wind and rain, and the 500 years of waiting and training only seeks a moment of consummation. But I don't want to part with my bridge, so I built a hut under the bridge, with my short years to accompany it."

"The great wish of crossing the world and the glimpse of a glimpse are not in conflict. After 500 years of wind and rain, if you change for decades of companionship, crossing yourself and crossing others, isn't it the best of both worlds?"

"If you feel that the 500 years of wind and rain are long, you will lose your Zen mind." Cheng Dan lowered his head and smiled: "The stone bridge is used as a body to carry horses and pedestrians. This is a crossing; please feel at ease. He Xinyue, this is crossing yourself, it is the second crossing; the water goes far away, the years are silent, and being with one person is happy for a lifetime, this is the third crossing."

After a pause, Cheng Dan said again: "One is to cross the world, the other is to cross oneself, and the third is to cross others. They are all common things. Why do you have great ambitions? It is true that there is no trouble when you come, and there is silence when you go."

Wang Shengchan was silent for a while, then smiled and said, "Good."

The moral of Shiqiao Zen is to let the world let go of obsessions, follow one's heart and mind, and don't pursue those so-called eternal things that are illusory.However, although Cheng Dan's understanding is slanted, he can't be wrong. On the contrary, it is more humane than blindly telling people to let go.

In fact, the Shiqiao Zen of Buddhism is similar to the Wangqing of Taoism. Everyone knows that the two are very good, but there are very few who can really do it.

It's better to be like Cheng Dan, who keeps the profound comprehension in his heart, and walks towards the clear goal without stopping.Firstly, do not delay in tempering your state of mind, and secondly, do not delay in actual actions, and do what you can do best.

Zhang Yuliang was immersed in the look that Cheng Dan had just looked at him for a long time, until he finished speaking, he slowly came back to his senses, and couldn't help but envy the "stone bridge" he said.

It is said that waiting is bitter, but isn't it even more bitter for people like him who don't even have a chance to wait?

"The three of you have discussed the Tao all afternoon, don't you feel hungry?" Zhang Yuliang sighed softly in his heart, but Zhang Yuliang asked with a gentle and kind smile on his face, waving his fan.

It's okay not to say, as soon as he said, Cheng Dan and Que Tianyin touched their stomachs at the same time, looked at each other with bitter faces and said: "It's a little bit."

"I'm the one who's talking, who are you two looking at?" Zhang Yuliang was unhappy, and knocked on the floor with his fan, trying to win back Cheng Dan's attention.

"Then do you have a treat?" Cheng Dan and Que Tianyin exchanged winks, then suddenly turned their heads and asked in unison.

Zhang Yuliang was instantly stunned by the question: "???"

what happened?Why did it suddenly become whether he wants to treat him or not?

"It's okay to treat guests..." Zhang Yuliang reluctantly agreed, leaning on his chin with a fan, his mind inexplicably knotted, "What do you want to eat?"

Cheng Dan and Que Tianyin said in unison: "Spicy crayfish."

"..." Zhang Yuliang slid his hand, "You just have this row of noodles, who can't afford it? Come on, I'll take you to a seafood feast."

Cheng Dan jumped up with a smile, a series of dish names popped up in his mind, and he was ready to have a big meal.

Que Tianyin stood up unhurriedly, and by the way, did not forget to ask Wang Shengchan on the opposite side: "Master, do you want to go with us, or do you want us to bring something?"

"Don't call me Master, I'm not a Buddha." Shi Ran put his sleeves together and stood up, smiling lightly, "Just call me Wangsheng Chan from now on."

Hearing this, the smiles on the faces of the three of Cheng Dan immediately turned into identical black question marks.

"Aren't you a Buddhist?"

Their demeanor and tone of inquiry were too synchronized, making the always calm and indifferent Wangsheng Chan chuckle aloud: "Although Silent Sword Life Zen uses the word 'Zen', it only cultivates the mind with Zen principles, not really entered into it." Fomen, everyone has misunderstood."

Yes, the misunderstanding is serious, especially Que Tianyin, who has been talking to him about the Zen all afternoon, has a feeling that his ideas are not correct.

Cheng Dan accepted it well, he has always been open-minded, and preconceived notions have little effect on him.Zhang Yuliang didn't care about his identity, and he corrected his misunderstanding after a short while of adaptation.Only the image of the eminent monk in Que Tianyin's heart can't get rid of, no matter how you look at it, Wangsheng Zen is against harmony.

Especially when he saw him skillfully peeling and shelling seafood such as crabs, crayfish, and pippi shrimp, the sense of disobedience became even stronger.
