"...And I wrote this hymn: The great mercy of the Heavenly Lord has extended to all the underworlds in the ten directions, proclaimed the mysterious talismans, pardoned the springs, rescued people, and freed them from the sufferings of the three journeys. All the men and women whose souls were stagnant in the Lake Courtyard of blood will be elevated to the highest level!"
After Lu Yan finished reading the last sentence, he raised his head and looked at Wu Qiudao steadily. After a long time, he said: "You can't practice!"
Wu Qiudao asked: "What if I succeed?"
Lu Yan took a sip of wine, closed his eyes, and said, "You can't do it."
Wu Qiudao walked up to Lu Yan and said, "I haven't even mastered the Taiyin refining method at the end of "Taiyin Corpse Execution and Metamorphosis Barrier", but I did it the first time I came into contact with it! I am
That one-of-a-kind genius, why do you say I can’t do it?”
Several medicine men raised their heads and looked at the two people in the conversation.
"Because..." Lu Yan sighed, "It's very dangerous to practice like that!"
Wu Qiudao's eyes lit up, that means it can indeed be practiced? He asked: "Where is the danger?"
Lu Yan said: "The road is deep and profound. If you realize it wholeheartedly and work hard..."
"I know!" Wu Qiudao interjected, "It will give rise to all kinds of troubles and obstacles, polluting the mind. In short, Cthulhu will lose his sanity. I know it well."
Lu Yan shook his head: "Although I don't know what you mean, I know one thing. You have just built the foundation. Although you have experienced the Three Corpses Pass, you still don't understand how dangerous it is to pursue speed!"
Having said this, Lu Yan stood up, walked to the door of the hall, looked at the bright moon disk and said: "If you want to enter the Tao, you must sense and understand what the Tao is. Do you know what the Tao is?"
Wu Qiudao thought for a while and said: "Tao is the road and the law. It is the sum of the laws of the heaven, earth and the universe, right?"
Lu Yan nodded: "The four directions above and below are called the universe, and the past and present are called the universe. The laws of the universe. What you said is very good. So, do you think that the human mind can fully understand all the laws of the entire universe?"
Wu Qiudao was stunned. This Chunyangzi seemed to be asking himself: Is it possible for the world to be completely known?
According to Wu Qiudao's original intention, he is actually more agnostic. After all, the "Uncertainty Principle" popular in the scientific community in later generations tells us that it is impossible for any observer to accurately measure the position and momentum of a particle at the same time.
Wu Qiudao thought for a long time and could only say: "I think it's unlikely."
Lu Yan praised: "The heaven and the earth are unkind and treat all things as stupid dogs. In the vast universe, humans are so insignificant. The limited human mind cannot understand the entire universe. We can only feel it by conforming to nature and constantly assimilating with the heaven, earth and universe."
The various appearances manifested by the avenue.”
"Any attempt to use words and thoughts to summarize the great road of the universe is like trying to catch a shadow, because even a saint will get lost in it, and ghosts and gods will not have the full picture of the passage. Therefore, the Sutra of the Supreme Wonderful Way says:"
"The great road is like a blown shadow, and thought is like dust. Holy wisdom creates a mystery, and ghosts and gods cannot recognize it. But it cannot be done, cannot be achieved, cannot be measured, and cannot be divided, so it is called heaven, it is called destiny, it is called god, it is called yuan.
Together they are called Tao."
Lu Yan explained: The great road is indescribable, inconceivable, uncontrollable, untouchable, unmeasurable, and it is impossible to break it apart and study it at will!
Therefore, the troubles and demonic obstacles that appear when realizing the Tao are not because the Tao intentionally harms people, but if a person swallows a huge mountain whole into his stomach, his stomach and intestines will naturally produce various pain warning signs, and the same is true for Taoism.
"It can be seen from this that the troubles of inner demons are not exclusive to foundation building. If we want to continue to practice and seek the Tao, then sensing the outer energy and studying the Tao is our daily routine. Therefore, breaking the three corpses and removing the five poisons has become our lifelong homework
!”
"The way to practice can only be done by a blind man touching an elephant and being cautious, but never by swallowing the elephant and being greedy and rash."
"It is not easy for a Qi refiner to avoid three disasters and eight disasters, but if he encounters Taoist pollution and the five poisons block his mind, he may become a crazy demon at any time and be condemned by the whole world! That Gootizi is also a good person.
Aren’t the Qi refiners who have endured the trap lost their Taoist mind for a moment because of their relaxation?"
Wu Qiudao frowned and said: "In other words, regardless of the two paths of good and evil, any successful monk in the world will be a self-made natural disaster in human form that can become a demon at any time?"
"That's right, little brother, I don't want you to follow in the footsteps of senior brother Goutizi. In a moment of eagerness for quick success, you unknowingly fall into the devil's trap." Lu Yan turned to look at Wu Qiu and said, "Otherwise, for the sake of the safety of the Shu people in Shu, I will
I’m also going to do the things to ward off demons and defend the law on you.”
Wu Qiudao nodded: "Understood! It's just Cthulhu adding the idea that the enemy and we are of the same origin. I've seen it too much."
"The enemy and we have the same origin?" Lu Yan chewed on this novel combination of words, "Yes, the enemy and we have the same origin. It really hurts the relatives and the enemies! Today, I came a little late and caused such a tragedy. I am already extremely heartbroken.
I really don’t want to use my sword against you again, little brother.”
"Hahahaha." Wu Qiudao laughed a few times and then said, "Great Sword Immortal, I believe you are really doing it for my own good and sincerely protecting all living beings. In fact, there is a very similar train dilemma in my hometown.
'problem."
"Train dilemma?" Lu Yan tilted his head.
Wu Qiudao said: "The same goes for carriages. Let's use an analogy. If you see a passenger carriage..."
Lu Yan interrupted: "What is a passenger carriage? I only know that the 'Five Elements Wheel' has the main transport and passenger transport."
"Oh, it's a carriage specially used to transport passengers." Wu Qiudao said, "If you see, no, if you are the coachman of a passenger carriage, there are 10 passengers in the carriage besides you, but very few
Unfortunately, the horse pulling the cart was frightened and suddenly lost control and ran wildly."
Lu Yan took a sip of wine, closed his eyes, and began to imagine the terrible scene in his mind.
"What's even more unfortunate is that there are only two paths in front of you." Wu Qiudao continued to describe, "There is only one person on the left path, but there are 5 people on the right path. If you do nothing, the carriage will go to the right.
I was bumped into on the road, but if you pull the reins..."
"Ahem, cough, cough." Lu Yan opened his eyes and answered, "The carriage will hit the left lane. The person on the left will die, but the 10 people in the car and the 5 people in the right lane will survive.
.”
Wu Qiudao nodded: "Yes, you can answer it quickly. So, if you were the horseman, would you do nothing and let the carriage hit the 5 people on the right? Or should you pull the reins and kill the 1 person on the left? Or risk it?"
Are you forced to stop the carriage because of the risk?"
Lu Yan was silent for a long time, coughing a few times from time to time.
Wu Qiudao looked directly into Lu Yan's eyes, silently waiting for his answer. Lu Yan tilted his head and looked away from each other.
"You are comparing the current scene, right? The people living in Shu are the 10 people on the carriage." Lu Yan pointed to the tied medicine man and asked, "They are the 5 people on the right, and you are on the left.
That innocent passerby who didn’t deserve to die.”
"Aren't the five people on the right innocent?" Wu Qiudao asked.
Lu Yan looked at the medicine men, and then sighed: "They are also innocent! They suffered unreasonable disasters."
Wu Qiudao asked: "Tell me, what would you do?"
Lu Yan thought for a long time and opened his mouth several times, but could not give an answer.
"Can't you tell?" Wu Qiudao leaned over and picked up the fragment of the book with the copy of "The Immortal Sand Return to Souls", "If you can't tell, please give up your seat and let me pull the reins, Great Sword Immortal.
