Dawn in Xianshan Mountain Chapter 49: Wen Daoyan's epiphany overnight
The night was quiet and the drinks in the courtyard were empty.
Under the old pine trees that had gone through countless winds and frosts, Wen Daoyan looked down the mountain for a long time, as if he was expecting something.
I don't know how much time passed, but he suddenly looked at the senior brother next to him and asked: "Senior Brother, over the past few months, I have heard many people saying that cultivating the Tao depends on fate, and fate is determined by heaven. I want to ask senior brother, what is the destiny?
Is it really impossible to change the number?"
This problem has been brewing in his mind for a long time.
I originally wanted to find Master Ming Shu’s answer, but since I started, I have made no progress, so Wen Daoyan was too embarrassed to go.
Su Mu looked at his worried look and thought seriously about telling Wen Daoyan the story about the Demon Sect that Ming Shu told him today.
Finally, he made a concluding speech, "The Pavilion Master said that in ancient times, weakness was a sin. You feel depressed because many fellow disciples in the mountain gate are sarcastic and sarcastic towards you. Have you realized that weakness is the best?"
Wen Daoyan was slightly startled. He believed that the reason why senior brother asked this question must have a deep meaning.
But, what does weakness have to do with destiny?
Weakness is sin. This sentence seems to be correct, because he has experienced it more than once.
"Please give me some advice, Senior Brother." After thinking for a long time, Wen Daoyan still couldn't figure it out.
Su Mu shook his head and said angrily: "In my humble opinion, being weak is not a crime. The guilty ones should be those who are weak and do not want to make progress. They muddle along and blame others. They always blame fate for their tragic fate. If they don't work hard, how can they know themselves?
What is your destiny?"
A strong hand fell on Wen Daoyan's shoulder, "Besides, you are cultivating your own way, why do you do other people's business?"
It can be seen that there has been no progress for several months, and Wen Daoyan is actually on the verge of collapse.
If he hadn't heard about Tan Zheng before, maybe the sumptuous reception banquet just now was a farewell banquet.
"I'm leaving. Think carefully about what kind of Tao you have cultivated."
Immediately, Su Mu turned and left.
Wen Daoyan remained silent under the tree for a long time, and then looked at the stars in the night sky.
Meditate and adjust your breath, comprehend the world.
In the quiet Songshan Residence, starlight flows down from the night, and together with the aura of heaven and earth, lingers around Wen Daoyan.
In Wen Daoyan's mind, the words spoken by his senior brother kept echoing.
The state of mind becomes more and more determined, and the scenery of heaven and earth enters the mind.
He saw wild beasts fighting to the death in the deep mountains.
He saw among the grass and trees, they were not giving up an inch in order to seize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
He saw beggars begging along the street in the market.
The fighting beasts will eventually die, the fighting plants will wither, and the beggars will die.
But until the dust settles, no one knows who dies and who dies.
All the phenomena of heaven and earth have been hovering in front of my eyes for I don’t know how long.
suddenly.
"Elder brother, I understand!"
Wen Daoyan suddenly opened his eyes, which reflected countless stars and spiritual energy.
But Wen Daoyan didn't seem to see this at all. He only faced the eldest brother's room respectfully and knelt down solemnly, "Thank you, eldest brother, for the advice. It doesn't matter whether your destiny is predetermined or not. The important thing is to have a normal heart. I cultivated it."
It should be the ordinary way."
...
At dawn, there was a lot of noise in the small courtyard.
Su Mu was a little unhappy because he finally had time to sleep in, but he still got up and walked out of the room, only to see at least sixty or seventy people gathered inside and outside the courtyard.
The eyes of these people were all focused on Wen Daoyan in the middle.
I saw Wen Daoyan gently waving his palm towards a leaf on the tree, and the spiritual energy flowing between heaven and earth followed his command and picked the leaf.
Many disciples were already dumbfounded.
Hong Qing was shocked and said: "Oh my God, you have never entered Taoism, how come you can control the spiritual energy of heaven and earth freely?"
"Junior Brother Wen, can you control this stone?"
A disciple pointed to a stone weighing about fifty or sixty kilograms on the courtyard wall.
"I can try,"
Wen Daoyan stepped forward slowly, holding his breath and concentrating, as if a spiritual light flashed in his eyes.
He slightly raised his palms toward the stone, and saw the stone rising into the air.
"Junior Brother Wen, how on earth did you do it?"
Su Qi almost took a breath of cold air. He knew well the difference between controlling a leaf and wielding a boulder.
This represents the degree of control over spiritual energy.
Generally speaking, a practitioner who enters Taoism for the first time can control very little of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It is very difficult to lift a leaf from a distance of half a foot, not to mention taking it from the air.
Wen Daoyan's current ability to control objects can be said to be equivalent to that of a monk who has entered the upper realm of Taoism.
But the question is, before Wen Daoyan's Huang Ting was opened and his natal vitality was not moved, how did he control the aura of heaven and earth?
"I have no idea,"
Wen Daoyan looked at everyone sincerely and said with some confusion: "Last night, after I asked my senior brother for advice, he asked me to seriously think about what path I was practicing, so I quietly meditated under the pine tree."
"When I woke up, I found that there was spiritual energy lingering around me, and it stayed there for a long time. When my thoughts came to my mind, they listened to my thoughts and followed my thoughts."
"It turns out that it was senior brother who gave me some guidance!"
Hong Qing immediately found a reasonable reason, but Wen Daoyan's current ability still shocked him.
"No wonder, my uncle is a genius who has not been born for hundreds of years. It is only because my uncle can help you to solve your doubts that you can change drastically overnight. Otherwise, in a few months, you would have become a Taoist."
"Exactly,"
Everyone's eyes fell on Wen Daoyan, but they hadn't noticed Su Mu standing at the door.
Wen Daoyan is even more like this, but his kindness to his senior brother in guiding him is like the water of the East China Sea, he can't stop saying, "Senior Brother has learned all the principles of heaven and earth, so that I can suddenly realize something and finally gain something. From now on, Senior Brother
To me, he is no longer a simple senior brother, but a master."
"That's how it should be,"
Su Qi suddenly came up and said, "But since you are my uncle's apprentice, you can be considered a family member with me. Please teach me how to do it."
"Junior Brother Wen, you and I share the same friendship. When those people talked about you, I was always the first one to rush up and criticize them. You have to teach me."
"Junior Brother Wen, you can't favor one over the other, you have to teach me."
Suddenly, everyone gathered together and asked.
And Wen Daoyan suddenly remembered something amidst the countless noises.
"stop!"
His tone rarely became tougher, and he said: "You are so noisy that you have disturbed the senior brother to take a rest."
As he spoke, he also turned and looked towards the room where Su Mu lived.
As a result, I saw the senior brother leaning on the door.
Su Mu looked at everyone with a smile and said, "Everyone looks very happy."
"Disciple was so happy that he forgot the time. Please ask Master for punishment." Wen Daoyan held the disciple's bow and bowed to ask for punishment.
He was speaking completely from his heart, but he led Hong Qing astray: "This disciple was also happy for a moment and begged Master to punish him."
After the words fell, Hongqing felt that something was wrong.
In fact, he was not particularly convinced of Su Mu at first.
But after the assessment in Thousand Miles of Forest, when Su Mu faced the god-level monster Hook Snake, he was convinced.
Fortunately, the others haven't taken the lead yet.
But they all wanted Su Mu to salute and say, "I've met senior brother."
