The gentleman is to blame

The two were in a panic, not knowing where they were going.

Song Huaizhen finished eating his own candied haws, and found that Xie Nangui's body hadn't moved at all.

"Xie Nangui, look, if..."

Xie Nangui completely ignored Song Huaizhen, walked around and ate candied haws gracefully.

Walking and walking, I found that the scenery in front of me was not right. Compared with the bustling night market, this place really didn't look like a part of Xifu.

On the empty green land, there are only a few trees growing faintly, no flowers, no traffic.It is different from the eerie Devil May Cry in Haiyu Temple Mountain, and also different from the tranquility of Pengcheng Plum Garden.

What is revealed here is a kind of deathly silence, no sound, neither living nor dead, no demons, and no immortals.It's not like the space I usually live in at all.

"Song Huaizhen, we seem to have come to a place we shouldn't have come."

Song Huaizhen actually didn't understand Xie Nangui's panic, he didn't understand why he ran away from a good night market, and he didn't know why he came to such a strange place.

Song Huai really wanted to ask Xie Nangui, when suddenly there was the sound of gurgling water, accompanied by distant lights.

The two looked at each other, Xie Nangui said, "Go and see?"

Song Huaizhen nodded.

The night is floating, a small lake.

A round of bright moon hangs in the sky, and the cold white moonlight reflects on the lake. There is an exquisite and small painting boat sailing on the lake. A wind brocade can be seen faintly on the stern of the boat. Looking around, the brocade reads: "Xiyue boat".

The lights on the boat are bright, and the yellow radiance of the boat lights reflects on the lake, giving the cold lake water combined with the moonlight a little warmth.Song Huaizhen vaguely heard someone's voice on the boat.The resentment in the body responded, and there seemed to be some force on the boat that was attracting him.

Song Huaizhen shouted to the boat, "I'm Song Huaizhen, I lost my way here with my friends, can you let the two of us get on the boat to visit an expert?"

After finishing speaking, Huafang actually turned the bow of the boat and sailed slowly towards the direction of Song Huaizhen and Xie Nangui.

Seeing this, the two immediately performed lightness kung fu, stepped on the lake water, splashed layers of ripples, then jumped lightly, and stood firmly on the bow of the painting boat.

But to their surprise, the hull is not only not gorgeous, but dilapidated, as if it has withstood a lot of damage in the wind and waves. There is a portable lantern on the bow. If the moon here is cold and white, then this lantern The dilapidated round lantern can be described as pale.Song Huaizhen thought of a way to light up the lamp, and walked towards the inside of the painting boat.

The interior is empty, illuminated by a portable lantern, there is only a piano table, a lyre, and a futon.

Song Huaizhen looked at the lyre, stepped through the iron shoes and found nowhere to find it, it took no effort to get it.

It's wall chant.

There was a big hole in the top of the painting boat. Song Huaizhen looked up and saw only the black starry sky and the full moon.Xie Nangui walked to Song Huaizhen's side, looked up at the moon, and said, "People today don't see the moon in ancient times, but this moon once shone on the ancients. As far as you and I are concerned, the ancients used to ride on the Xiyue boat, but today there is no Xiyueboat. It's just that This place is not like an ordinary illusion, and I guess it is not a formation."

Song Huaizhen nodded, and said, "I also agree with your guess. Speaking of which, I read a book that said:

In the prehistoric period, there were many sects of cultivating immortals, and the world was full of spiritual energy. Gods, immortals, demons, ghosts, demons, and humans coexisted in the six realms. In addition to the six realms, there are also spirit clans. Spirits are different from transformed demons. Demons also need reincarnation. Reincarnation, and the spirit, through the material that does not have life itself, such as a book, this book contacts with the creatures of the other six worlds, and the various emotions, joys and sorrows experienced during the period will infect the book.

And what is produced by spiritual power, books, and complex emotions is the spirit.The spirit itself has no return, and when its life is exhausted, it dissipates between the heaven and the earth. It is said that what comes from the earth is returned to the earth.

The Spirit Race has long since disappeared, and it is impossible to exist between heaven and earth.If the spirit has not completely completed the transformation, such as insufficient spiritual power, it may be like a ghost, replaying the past memories that came into contact with it, to be precise, the memories containing strong emotions.

According to legend, during the prehistoric period, there was once a country that was captured by the enemy, named Yunnan Wolf. After the new king occupied the Palace of Yunnan Wolf, he could always see the phantom of Princess Zhenyue from the Kingdom of Yunnan Wolf wandering in the palace, or singing and dancing. , or play the pipa.The Taoist priest who was Qingyuemen at that time was invited to exorcise the evil, but unexpectedly, it was not a ghost at all, but a spirit that could not be transformed. "

Xie Nangui said, "According to what you said, we may now be in a space fragment that used to be in the Six Realms. And the voice we heard just now may be the spirit of the painting boat that has not been transformed."

Song Huaizhen nodded, and then said, "The spiritual power in this space should be getting less and less. If the two of us want to reproduce the scene of painting the boat just now, I'm afraid we need to infuse spiritual power."

Song Huaizhen looked at the lyre, bent down slightly, mobilized a little spiritual power in his body, and was about to release it, but found that the spiritual power retreated, as if there was a leak of resentment, Song Huaizhen was really surprised, couldn't hold back, and moved it When the strings are touched, only one sound can be heard, but in a short time, the curtain is lit up, carved beams and painted phoenixes, and faint fragrance can still be heard.There is a man sitting on a futon, with wide clothes and wide sleeves, plucking the strings with his slender hands.

Song Huaizhen felt that at this moment in the boundless world, he was like a speck of dust, blowing up with the wind, and there were many other specks of dust around him, each of them followed their own trajectories, neither colliding nor colliding with each other. Worried about bumping into other dust.

After turning into dust, Song Huaizhen has seen thousands of scenery, dancing and Xie towers, carved railings and jade trees, grass growing and warblers flying, moistening rain like crisp, all the uncanny workmanship that he has longed to see all his life, all in his eyes!

No horror, no worries.

Whirling three thousand, swimming proudly.

The sound of the piano stopped suddenly, and the scenery in front of me disappeared without a trace.

Song Huaizhen seemed to have just woken up from a dream, and saw that the man had stopped playing the lyre, and was sitting upright on the futon, looking at himself and Xie Nangui.

Xie Nangui said, "Your Excellency can hear a song, three thousand worlds, but an instant."

The man said, "I wanted to ask you two why you came to Xiaoxiang Lake in the northern region of Taixuan Mountain. This place has always been inaccessible. But now I don't want to ask about it. You two know, what do immortals need most?"

Song Huaizhen and Xie Nangui felt strange, but it was inconvenient to attack the man rashly right now.

Xie Nangui said, "Dao Xin."

Song Huaizhen said, "Opportunity."

The man laughed loudly after hearing this, "If you want to become an immortal, Dao Heart and chance are indispensable, but Dao Heart cultivation is difficult, but you can still rely on hard work and strict self-discipline to achieve it, only chance, you can't get it if you want it , I see that the little Taoist priest is wearing a Taoist robe, and he must be a cultivator. You just said that becoming an immortal is most dependent on chance, if you don't have such an opportunity, you can't become an immortal, so what?"

Song Huaizhen said, "If there is no chance, I will not become a fairy."

The man said, "Don't become a fairy. If you want to become a fairy, you need to have a firm heart. To be a fairy is to have a heart. If you don't have a firm heart, what's the chance? I think it's the blue-clothed boy, but——" The man looked at Xie Nangui seriously for a while, smiled, and then said, "I guess your move may have other meanings, but as far as I can see, this technique is harmful to your body. After a long time, it's not just a chance thing."

Xie Nangui's eyes were slightly astonished, and then he said, "Thank you for your guidance, senior, this junior knows it well."

The man nodded and said, "I am the lord of the Northern Territory of Taixuan Mountain. Now it has passed the period of death, but I can't go any further. My heart is sad, so I put aside the things in the domain and come This Xiaoxiang Lake cruise ship plays the piano, and by the way, think about why I can't move forward."

Song Huai sincerely said that the Nirvana period was already at a very, very high level in the world of cultivating immortals in the prehistoric period. If I remember correctly, it is not very far away from the immortals. It has reached this point, and it is still sad.Sure enough, for the matter of becoming a fairy, unless you are truly in the fairy class, you can't give up your attachment.

Song Huaizhen said, "Then how does the lord view the matter of chance?"

The man said, "I am originally the son of the wealthy Chu family, but I was born with meager spiritual power and poor talent. I am not as good as my sisters and brothers in my family. They didn't even take me away. Speaking of which, my younger brother Zeyou is eccentric by nature and extremely gifted in spiritual power, but he refuses to cultivate immortality, and only wants to start a business at home. But I yearn to cultivate Taoism very much, which is really strange.

The tribe advised me to do business at home and Zeyou to go up the mountain, but unfortunately neither of us obeyed.Later, Master Xubai, the former master of Taixuan Mountain in the Northern Territory, asked the two of us what is the most important thing in cultivating Taoism.Master Xubai took me up the mountain after listening to the answer. "

Song Huaizhen said, "It seems that Brother Ling and I are the same kind of people. All things in the world are formed by the combination of karma and fate. The gathering of fate and the separation of fate are the accumulation of past karma. In this world, if you can find your own way, you are already. Fortunately, if you want to practice Taoism, you can practice Taoism, if you want to do business, you can do business, so why should you care about the result?"

The man said, "Unexpectedly, at such a young age, my little friend is indeed extraordinary and refined, not like a Taoist priest, but like a monk."

Xie Nanguidao said, "Cultivation of the Tao is about chance, but when it comes to persistence, it is necessary. This kind of persistence is the heart of Taoism. The world is complicated, and it is not easy to maintain the heart all the time."

The man nodded to Xie Nangui, and said, "That's true. After I came to Taixuan Mountain, I knew that my spiritual power was meager, and the effort I put in was several times that of a talented person. Even everyone fell asleep at night. Still lighting up the night reading or practicing spells. In order to accumulate blessings and strengthen Dao heart.

I learned medical skills from Qing Yazi, my grandfather's uncle, from the Southern Region Medical School, just to go down the mountain for free consultation.Venerable Master Xubai thought of my benevolence, so he broke the rules and accepted me, an ordinary disciple in the Northern Territory, as the youngest personal close disciple.Those who complained about me at the beginning were mostly moved by my righteous deeds and hard work, and basically did not embarrass me.From an unknown and unappreciated ordinary disciple, I became a closed disciple that Venerable Xubai is proud of in one fell swoop.But later, I found one thing that I couldn't change anyway. "
