With tears in his eyes, he slowly turned around and saw an old man standing in front of him.
Looking carefully, you can see that the old man's beard and hair are white and his face is old. Judging from his age, he may be over a hundred years old. He is wearing a shabby Taoist robe that is both wide and slightly patched. Although he looks old and his clothes are shabby, his eyes are extremely old.
There is a spirit, and the overall look actually gives people a feeling of immortality and Taoism. At this moment, Chen Xiaoyao looked at each other with tears in his eyes and the old Taoist in front of him, looking at each other motionless.
It's been a long time...
"Master, I miss you so much!"
Suddenly, Chen Xiaoyao took the lead. After saying the above words, he suddenly rushed towards Lao Dao. Seeing the young man rushing towards him, Lao Dao's original serious face was replaced by a smile.
Finally, Chen Xiaoyao hugged each other.
At this moment, this young man who looked cynical at all times just hugged the old man with his arms tightly like a child, and never let go. The old man looked at the young man with eyes full of love.
.
"Hey, little bastard, you've been hugging me for so long, isn't it time to let go?"
After a while, following the other party's repeated requests, Chen Xiaoyao wiped his tears and let go of the old Taoist in front of him who he called his master. Yes, as the young man originally called him, the old man in front of him was none other than Zeng.
The mentor who taught him martial arts and Taoism was also the previous head of Lushan Ziwei Temple, Taoist Priest Ziwei, who had been immersed in Taoism and cultivation all his life!
The reunion between master and disciple was touching, at least the following conversation is the best evidence.
"You bastard, it's been a long time since I last saw you, and you're still acting cynical. It seems like you haven't made much progress in the past few years since my master's death."
"Master, I haven't seen you for such a long time, and you look equally unlucky. Several years have passed and you still haven't replaced this worn Taoist robe with something new."
After spending the initial joy of meeting each other and joking with each other a few times, Chen Xiaoyao suddenly remembered a question that he couldn't understand. Sure enough, as soon as he teased the master, before the other party could say anything, the young man looked confused.
Asked: "By the way, Master, you, why are you here?".
However, it was okay for Chen Xiaoyao not to ask. When he asked, the old Taoist's amiable face suddenly turned into an angry look, and then the young man pointed his finger and yelled loudly: "What? Why am I here? You kid still have the nerve to ask?"
Do you know that if I hadn’t slapped you in time just now, you would have been completely dead!”.
Facing the old man's angry words and scolding, Chen Xiaoyao couldn't help but hesitate, his doubts were evident in his words, and question marks popped up in his mind...
Noticing that Chen Xiaoyao was becoming more and more confused, the old Taoist sighed and lifted up his Taoist robe and strode out to the center of the gray space. He first pointed at the black and white space on both sides, and finally pointed at his feet and explained to the young man: "
Xiaoyao, let’s not talk about how you got here.
Only people who are about to die would come to this place, but one thing I can tell you is... the gray space you are currently in is the dividing line between life and death, and there is a black space on your left and right.
One white represents eternal death and the continuation of life respectively."
What!
As soon as the old Taoist said this, Chen Xiaoyao was shocked!
After finally breaking free from the shock, he couldn't even think about talking for a while. He just turned his head and started to observe. He kept scanning the surroundings with his surprised eyes, continuously looking at the environment. He looked at the space he was in and the black and white areas on the left and right. He observed it for a long time.
Swallowed
After spitting, the young man turned his head as if he suddenly thought of something, and then asked the old man in a tentative tone: "Do you mean that I am at the legendary junction of Yin and Yang at this moment? Once you enter the black space on the right
…Am I equivalent to complete death?”.
As mentioned before, Chen Xiaoyao is a talented and intelligent person. Not only his brain is bright, but his mental constitution is also excellent. He is a perfect candidate for practicing Taoism. This is why Chen Xiaoyao was living on the street due to amnesia.
The real reason why Taoist Master Ziwei found a treasure and took it into his sect is yes. It is precisely because of his intelligence and excellent qualifications. So after the old Taoist announced the truth, Chen Xiaoyao quickly figured out the reason, got the general idea, and basically understood it.
I understand the meaning of Master’s words.
Seeing his disciple's rapid understanding, he stroked his chin beard. The old man nodded slightly and sighed: "In this world, it is inevitable that there will be unfairness. Many times people will be treated unfairly, and the so-called fairness in this world is just a word of mouth, but..."
After saying that, after a pause, the old man changed his subject and continued: "Not necessarily. At least there is still one thing in the world that is fair to everyone and even all life, and that is death.".
"No matter how rich and generous you were in life, no matter how prominent you were in life, and no matter how powerful you were in life, everyone is mortal, and everyone is equal before death. After death, there will be no exception in this yin and yang world.
, once they come here, most people will eventually enter the black space that represents eternal death. As for the reason..."
"It's very simple. First of all, you have to understand that the yin and yang world is special. It is the link between the underworld and the yang world. There is nothingness here that seems real and false, which has a serious impact on the mind. Once here, except for a few monks, they can barely retain their self-awareness.
Otherwise, the rest will all be in a state of confusion and confusion, and the final result will undoubtedly be that they will step into the black world on their own according to the inertia of death."
At this point, he seemed to notice a trace of rebuttal in Chen Xiaoyao's eyes, and shook his head. The old man said what the young man was thinking: "Well, after listening to what I said, I guess you must have been confused in addition to just now.
Questions, for example, since black represents death and white represents the Yang world, then wouldn't a few ascetics be able to take advantage of their clear consciousness to escape from death? If you give up black and enter the white space, wouldn't it be equivalent to returning to Yang?
?”
"As I expected, your kid definitely thought that just now, hehe, hehehe."
Due to the mutual understanding between master and disciple, there was no need for the young man to ask questions. The old man took the initiative to express his thoughts instead. As for Chen Xiaoyao, although he had indeed thought about it, he did not expect that the master would actually grin at the end of the sentence.
Showing disdain, seeing this, his already doubtful heart was further complicated and confused. Although he was temporarily puzzled, as he lowered his head and returned to contemplation, after a while, he thought of something and recalled one thing. It was none other than
A scene he experienced personally not long ago!
