Reciting the Yellow Court for thirty years, stone monkeys come to worship

Chapter 87 Chao Wendao, You Can Die In The Evening
On Fangcun Mountain, Jiang Yun and Taoist Undead sat opposite each other.

Obtaining the Tao from the form of the immortal tree is called Immortal.

"Because of my infinite life, I will live a long life, and I will practice Taoism while traveling in the world of mortals, so that I can achieve something."

The Immortal Taoist said slowly: "Brother Daoist, I have realized the heaven and the earth, and formed the heaven and the earth by itself. I can be called a living immortal. I don't know how my brother sees me?"

Jiang Yun pondered for a while, and said, "I have never watched you, nor do I want to watch you."

"Why?" asked the immortal Taoist.

"Fellow Daoists have attained the Dao like this, and they already have their own Dao. If you look at it casually, it will be disrespectful."

Jiang Yun said indifferently: "Fellow Daoist has a long life, all living beings admire him, don't you worry about my desire?"

"Brother Dao has already won the world, and I am useless to Brother Dao."

Immortal Taoist said: "For brothers and sisters of Taoism, it is a treasure and a miracle medicine. However, I am like the gods of that day. I have never done any evil. It is unknown. It hurts the peace of heaven. Immortals like brother Tao should not disturb it." world."

Jiang Yun quietly looked at the Undead Taoist. It was a small tree about a meter long, but it contained infinite vitality.

Endless vitality, connected with the heaven and the earth, united with the heaven and the earth, can live as long as the sky.

It's a pity that this tree is still not satisfied with absorbing the power of heaven and earth, and has already given birth to the spirit of decline.

"There is no crime greater than desire, no disaster greater than dissatisfaction, and no fault greater than desire. Therefore, the satisfaction of contentment is always sufficient." Jiang Yun said indifferently.

The immortal Taoist was silent for a moment, and said, "Is there a law?"

"The sky lasts and the earth lasts. The reason why the heaven and the earth can last forever is because it does not grow on its own, so it can live forever. It is because the sage lives behind his body and survives without his body. Isn't it because of his selflessness? That's why he can become his selfishness."

Jiang Yundao: "Friends of Taoism are in harmony with the heaven and the earth, and they understand the heaven and the earth, and they also understand this principle."

The undead Taoist squeezed the formula with his hands, a green light lit up, and a hazy space appeared behind him.

In the hazy space, small green trees grow, rooted in infinite vitality.

It's just that this hazy space already has the aura of decay, and the immortal Taoist can only barely suppress it, so that the small green tree will not be infected by the aura of decay.

"I have an infinite lifespan, but can there be a law?" The immortal Taoist asked again.

Jiang Yun stood up and said, "This is the end of the Tao."

"Brother Daoist." The Immortal Taoist's complexion changed slightly, and he quickly got up and bowed: "Just ask for a way."

Jiang Yun gazed into the distance and recited the Daoyin: "There is a saying in the Tao Te Ching: Those who are good at building will not be pulled up, those who are good at hugging will not be removed, and the descendants will continue to sacrifice.

If you cultivate it in yourself, your virtue will be true; if you cultivate it in your family, your virtue will be superfluous; The world sees the world. "

"Since fellow Taoists have attained the Tao, you should know this truth. There is a common saying that children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Don't be a horse and an ox for your children and grandchildren."

The Undead Taoist thought for a moment, avoided answering, and asked instead: "Are you also a Taoist brother at the foot of the mountain?"

"I have no disciples for those who are destined to listen to the Tao." Jiang Yun said.

"Can I meet them?" the immortal Taoist asked.

"Yes." Jiang Yun nodded.

"Thank you brother."

The immortal Taoist turned and went down the mountain, Zhang Shouzheng and the others were tending the fields, Zhu Ganglie was lazily drinking and having fun secretly.

"Someone came down from the mountain." Bai Ying said in surprise.

They have been down the mountain, but they have not seen anyone climbing the mountain.

"It should be a teacher's friend, and you can't lose your courtesy."

Seeing the immortal Taoist approaching, Zhang Shouzheng hurriedly bowed, "I've seen you, senior."

"It's not senior, but a wild Taoist." Undead Taoist said calmly, "I just got a call, so I'm going down the mountain to have a discussion with three fellow Taoists."

"It turned out to be a seeker."

Zhu Ganglie hugged the wine jar, chuckled and said, "Come, let's talk while drinking."

Zhang Shouzheng bowed again: "Then please enlighten me."

Sitting cross-legged, the immortal Taoist pondered and said, "I see that you have a great aura, and you should be a disciple of Confucius. Why do you practice Taoism here?"

"Confucianism and Taoism are also Taoism. Although I know my own Taoism, I don't know how to practice Taoism. I asked the immortals here." Zhang Shouzheng said.

"Can you find the way you want?" the immortal Taoist asked.

"Thanks to the teacher's advice, I have obtained what I asked for." Zhang Shouzheng said: "I don't know you, what do you want here?"

The Immortal Taoist murmured, "Seek the long-lasting way of heaven and earth."

"The heavens and the earth can last forever, fellow daoists, do you want to live forever?" Zhang Shouzheng asked.

The Immortal Taoist replied: "Yes, and no, I seek the longevity of myself and the longevity of future generations, so as to become my own world."

"Did the teacher tell his friends?" Zhu Ganglie asked out loud.

"I haven't told you yet." The Immortal Taoist shook his head and sighed: "It is said that those who are good at building will not be pulled out, and those who are good at holding will not be taken off..."

"It's a blessing to have you as an ancestor and future generations." Zhu Ganglie said enviously.

"Unfortunately." Zhang Shouzheng shook his head.

"Where is the misfortune?" The immortal Taoist said in surprise, "I have an infinite life, and I can protect it with future generations."

When Zhang Shouzheng heard the words, he bowed immediately: "Senior has an infinite lifespan, and he has already attained the Tao. If he keeps upright and doesn't know it, dare to ask senior, the teacher has infinite Tao, why don't you come with us?"

Immortal Taoist pondered: "You have Confucianism and Taoism, Lord Dragon has the way of Lord Shui, but these two have no way."

"My old pig is stupid, I haven't understood my own way yet." Zhu Gang said fiercely.

Bai Ying said: "I'm also stupid, it's hard to understand."

Zhang Shouzheng said: "Senior, can you study Confucianism and Taoism, study Confucian classics, and follow the teachings of Confucius?"

"Why should I abandon my own Taoism and enter Confucianism?" The immortal Taoist frowned.

"Don't want to do it to yourself, don't do it to others." Zhang Shouzheng said with a smile: "Teacher has infinite ways, why do you want to impose it on us?"

"The teacher has a lot of principles, but he only talks about seeking the pioneers on the road. He often says that there is no way, and he doesn't know how to cultivate the Tao. Let the students seek the Tao and realize the Tao by themselves."

"Brother Pig also doesn't want to practice Confucianism and Taoism, can the teacher force it? Can I force it? The predecessors don't want me to force Confucianism and Taoism, why force it on future generations?"

"My old pig won't be like an idiot like you." Zhu Ganglie took a sip of his wine, whimpering.

"In the future, how will you teach your disciples?" the immortal Taoist asked.

"The way of a teacher, the way of Confucius, there is no distinction between teaching and teaching in accordance with their aptitude." Zhang Shouzheng said.

"I can't do it." The Immortal Taoist sighed, and said again: "If you use this way, your life is in danger, what should you do?"

"I heard the Tao in the morning, and I can die in the evening." Zhang Shouzheng replied.

"I heard the Tao in the morning, and I will die in the evening." Taoist Immortal muttered, "I thought I knew life and death, but I didn't want to. I am most afraid of death."

He stood up and bowed deeply: "I was wrong, thank you fellow daoist for your guidance."

"I don't dare to accept the great gift from my seniors. Keeping upright is just following the teacher's wishes." Zhang Shouzheng replied.

Undead Taoist didn't say much, turned around and left, but saw the stone tablet at the foot of the mountain, and read: "Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, Slanting Moon and Three Star Cave."

"Exactly, this is the teacher's dojo." Zhang Shouzheng said respectfully.

"Thank you." Undead Taoist thanked again, rode up the clouds, climbed Fangcun Mountain again, bowed and said: "Brother Dao, I was wrong."

Jiang Yun said indifferently: "Create in heaven and earth, return to heaven and earth, let go, and there will be a glimmer of life."

"Thank you, Daoist brother, for your guidance. My lifeline is clear." The Immortal Taoist sighed, "It's my fault, but I have killed the Undead Tree for many years."

"It's not too late." Jiang Yun said.

"I don't know, can I enter the cave?" The immortal Taoist said calmly, already sensing the existence of the Three Star Cave.

"You can enter yourself." Jiang Yun raised his hand, and the three-star cave of the oblique moon opened.
