The old man was amused by his stupid cow and shook his head in a funny way. Is he a person who only cares about the bull?
Besides, what's the point of playing tricks on this stupid cow?
The old man shook his sleeves, and there was a pair of straw sandals on the ground. He just stepped on them one by one.
Turning his hands again, a walking stick appeared.
Taking a step with a cane, it was obviously an ordinary step, but the person had already walked dozens of feet, and walked into the southeastern mountains in the blink of an eye.
The worn linen clothes were transformed into a blue Taoist robe that contrasted with the green mountains.
He is none other than Lao Tzu, the head of the Taoist sect and one of the clones of the Supreme Taoist.
…
Back then, I rode a green ox and met Master Chang-mei in the underworld. Now that I know that Master Chang-mei has descended to earth, I asked Laojun to borrow a green ox to meet Master Chang-mei and settle the cause and effect.
Based on Lao Tzu's teachings, it is natural that Master Longmei would not be able to recognize him. This person is not an ordinary person.
But he didn't think about the man and the cow from this man and the old man. It was the fault of the Changmei Master.
Clothes and appearance are only external, what matters is the inside.
This shows that the real person with long eyebrows only pays attention to appearance, and only appears to be kind, approachable, and polite.
On the inside, he is arrogant and does not treat everyone equally. He thinks he is a true immortal and does not take mortals into consideration.
In the end, I received three bows from me, which I shouldn’t have done.
Just because we meet by chance, why do people treat you with great courtesy? Is it just because you are an immortal and they are a mortal?
People have also said that they just want to die of old age. If this is the case, what about the immortals? They are all just one life.
It's nothing more than one living a short life and the other living a long life. But who says that people who live a short life are worse than those who live a long life?
This sentence is actually a nod to Master Changmei. Master Changmei should treat him as an equal and return the great gift he received for no reason.
But Master Changmei didn't pay attention, just thinking that everyone had their own way of living, and finally flew away in front of mortals.
Who are you doing it for? To scare people? Or to show off?
Don't think so? Even if you just let nature take its course, it's still rude. You should at least walk into the woods and fly like you did when you came.
This is exactly what Li Yingqiong complained about, and it is unethical.
Finally, he headed west again to find friends in Buddhism.
Of course, since all Taoist friends are in heaven, he can only go west.
But if he hadn't made friends with Buddhists, how could he have gone west at this time?
But as soon as he left, he became known as apostate and left a trail of cause and effect between Taoism and Buddhism.
Because Changmei Zhenren broke out of Nantianmen and was on the run.
When he goes west, with Zhunti's temper, he will definitely protect him and then transfer him to Buddhism. However, Changmei Zhenren cannot resist Zhunti, the leader of the religion.
The result is that if the Heavenly Court captures the Chang-mei master who beats out Nantianmen, Buddhism can protect him.
This shows that Heaven is incompetent, and that the Western Buddhist world is higher than Heaven, or even separated from Heaven.
This gives those creatures who are afraid of heaven a place to take refuge. It also corresponds to the words of Buddhism. It can make Buddhism prosperous and make up for the losses of Buddhism in the earth realm.
However, the cause and effect of jumping up to heaven is not small.
Buddhism doesn't care, but as far as Changmei Zhenren is concerned, as the instigator, his future fate will probably be on the chessboard of this dispute between Taoism and Buddhism.
Because the Jade Emperor was so narrow-minded that he would never let him go.
It's such a pity. He actually contributed to Taoism. Without him, how could there be Li Yingqiong?
Judging from the number of days, Li Yingqiong will be the Lord of Emei in the future, but it is just a few hundred years earlier.
…
While thinking about it, I walked to the mountain. When I turned a corner, a cave and paradise suddenly appeared in the empty mountain field.
It was created by the accumulation and concentration of spiritual energy in the earthly immortal world, forming a self-contained space. There are no real objects in it, only clouds of various colors arising from the spiritual energy.
Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, yin, and yang are all intertwined and appear colorful.
As long as it is refined and the space is stabilized, it can become a real cave of any size.
With the support of the spiritual energy of mountains, rivers and vegetation, the spiritual energy is endless and there is no need to pay extra.
This was originally a cave prepared for Master Changmei, the Emei Sect of the Earthly Immortal Realm.
He said that he and Lao Niu ate rare fruits and exotic herbs in the mountains.
As long as Master Changmei is more patient and talks to him, an old shepherd boy, he will tell him at the appropriate time without leaving a trace that there is a cave here.
As long as Master Changmei lives here and meditates behind closed doors, heaven will not touch him, and external matters will have nothing to do with him.
We'll wait until Li Yingqiong ascends, and then we'll discuss cause and effect.
Let Li Yingqiong, who was plotted by him, be struck with ten swords and eight swords, and the personal karma between him and Li Yingqiong would be settled.
By then, the Heavenly Numbers of the Earth Realm will definitely be clear again, and you will know at a glance that Master Changmei still has merit, and everything will be solved by then.
In fact, the Jade Emperor only asked the Changmei Master for questioning at the beginning, and did not want to do anything to him. At most, he would imprison him until Li Yingqiong came.
One day in heaven and one year on earth.
A thousand years on earth are but a thousand days in heaven.
For those who practice Taoism, it is only three years, and it will pass by just meditating.
Really, what a big deal. In the end, it ended up like this. After all, it was God’s will!
…
Boundary, Emei.
Li Yingqiong ended the appeal and turned to read the rules and punishments to the Emei disciples.
"Emei allows its disciples to practice both Taoism and Buddhism, but they must focus on Taoism and Buddhism. Buddhism can only be used as a reference and supplement for making analogies."
"It doesn't matter if you advance quickly in Buddhism. Just practice Taoism slowly."
"As long as you don't use Buddhism to ascend to the Western Buddha Realm, as long as you use Taoism to ascend to heaven, it's okay."
"Among all the disciples, if the ascetic Tutu had not lacked external skills, he would have ascended to the Buddha realm."
"So Mr. Yamazaki's attempt to steal his merits seemed like a great evil to prevent his ascension, but in fact he was kind to him and did not let him apostatize."
"Ascetic Tutu, do you think it is true or not?"
Yamazaki released his suppression of the ascetic Tutu soul at the right time. He also felt it, but he did not speak and remained silent.
Master Miao Yi, Qi Shuming, was worried about him. This sentence was wrong, and it was a sentence of life and death.
Li Yingqiong nodded and said: "Well, since you don't want to say it, I can't force you."
"But look at it, your precious disciple, Monk Xiaoxiao, is now full of anger and unwillingness. He is glaring at me angrily. He is obviously stubborn."
The ascetic Tutu was excited and spoke immediately. At the same time, he bowed and paid homage, but he still used the Namaste Buddha salute. He thought he was used to it and couldn't change it for a while.
"Enlightenment..."
Li Yingqiong raised his hand to stop him and said, "No need to say anymore, I am your leader, not a villain who bullies you."
"Take your angry disciple to the East China Sea and come back after you figure it out."
"You are disciples of Emei. As long as you don't give up on Emei, Emei will never give up on you."
"A sect is not about teaching disciples and giving them something to do, but a responsibility to eliminate disasters and solve problems for the disciples and lead them to the right path."
"Don't think that I am talking big words. I am really helping you, not harming you."
"If you feel that I am harming you and targeting you, please first think about whether your own path is correct."
"To cultivate the Tao, you must first cultivate your heart. You must have a heart for the Tao and a heart for human beings. Master Changmei did not teach you well, which resulted in your shortcomings. Now you have time to make up for it."
"If you feel that my words are harsh, you are right. Good advice is always offensive, and people who can give good advice are often good to you."
"Okay, let's go, be sure to remember that you are all Taoists of the Emei Sect of Taoism!"
