Chapter 219 Sister and Brother Love

The next day, early in the morning.

When Li Jie appeared in front of Taoyao with a pair of big black eyes, Taoyao frowned slightly and said, "Today is the day when the young man is enlightened, so he still needs to pay attention to his appearance."

Li Jie agreed absentmindedly and said to Taoyao, "Where can I find the collection of essays and poems that Brother Taoyao mentioned yesterday, and who is the editor?"

Tao Yao waved her hand, causing a stream of clear water to flow into the basin, and said, "These are all trivial matters. Young Master, please cleanse your face first, so as not to miss the moment of enlightenment."

Li Jie wanted to say something else, but Taoyao interrupted Li Jie, held the towel in his hand, and continued, "The matter of enlightenment is too important for the young man. We can talk about other things after the young man is enlightened."

Li Jie wiped his face carelessly twice, and Taoyao said nothing. She just led Li Jie through the peach blossom forest to the island in the middle of the lake.

"I will send you here, please go." Taoyao saluted Li Jie, Li Jie returned the gift, Taoyao blew the whistle again, and the tree root bridge emerged from the water.

Just when Li Jie stepped onto the Tree Root Bridge, peach blossoms began to fly on both sides of the Tree Root Bridge. Li Jie turned around in surprise and glanced at Taoyao in front of the peach blossom forest. A faint smile hung on the corner of Taoyao's mouth. .

"The master's enlightenment to the young man is a major event for my master's house. Although there is no sound of strings, bamboos, harps, harps and drums today, Taoyao greets and sends peach blossoms to comfort him." Taoyao's voice echoed throughout the entire lake island area, " Congratulations to the young man, congratulations to the master."

Li Jie walked along the tree root bridge to the door of the small courtyard on the island in the center of the lake. Countless peach blossoms followed Li Jie to form a huge wreath. The door of the small courtyard opened, and the wreath gradually became smaller and became a corolla that fell on Li Jie's hand.

Li Jie stepped into the small courtyard holding a garland, and realized that the scenery in front of him was no longer what it was last time, but a quaint courtyard. In the middle of the courtyard was an altar table, with nothing on it. The Master and Mr. Liu stood there smiling. one side.

The Master turned around, bowed to the altar table, and said, "A perfect man has no self, a god has no merit, and a saint has no name. Look up to him as high as you can, stand upright with observances, and be revered for eternity. The way of a saint has the sound of gold and jade vibrations, and the moon of eternity. Ming. Today there are no tools, and later generations are unable to advance in learning. They are enlightened by sages. The great virtues of the sages, the ancestors of humanities, and the inheritance of fire."

At this time, a group of figures appeared vaguely on the altar table, seemingly there or not. A voice without any emotion echoed in everyone's ears, but it seemed to rise directly from the bottom of everyone's heart, "Yes."

The Master turned around and faced Li Jie and said, "Bow, I present my crown."

Li Jie stood at a loss, not knowing what Daozi meant. Suddenly, he felt blessed and bowed to the figure. Then he straightened up, took a few steps forward and placed the flower crown on the altar table.

The master waited for Li Jie to stand still, then stretched out a finger to point at the center of Li Jie's eyebrows. Li Jie suddenly realized that he had entered an empty space. There was a huge statue in the space, and a voice sounded, "Where did it come from? "

Li Jie was stunned, and his voice sounded again, "Where are you going?"

The voice sounded again, "A person lives a busy life, what is his purpose?"

What does this mean? When Li Jie was thinking about it, he instantly became confused and said, "Come from the Tang Dynasty in the East and go to the West to worship Buddha and seek scriptures."

For a time, the entire space was filled with golden light, and the statue turned into a Buddha statue. The voice sounded again, "There is a Buddha preaching, and sometimes the wind blows and the flags are moving. A monk says, the wind is blowing. A monk says, the flags are moving. Why are they moving?"

Li Jie thought to himself that logically speaking, it was the heartbeat. To him, the world was unreasonable, so he replied, "Everything is moving. If you don't move, you are a bastard."

The Buddha statue changed again, into three statues of Taoist priests, and the voice sounded again, "In the past, a man dreamed of being a butterfly, and it was like a lifelike butterfly. He said that he was suitable for his will! He didn't know himself. Suddenly he realized that he was like himself. He didn't know he was dreaming. For Hu Die and Hu Die, Hu Die’s dream is for myself?”

Li Jie's brain shut down. This is an allusion to Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly. Oh, isn't this a portrayal of a time traveler? Did I travel through time or did my predecessor travel through time? Am I the dream of my predecessor or is it now my dream? How about playing?Why is it all philosophical speculation?
At this time, Master Xiaoyuan and Mr. Liu were looking at Li Jie's aura of Confucian aura, the light of Buddhism, and the pure aura of Taoism. The three were constantly changing and never stopped.The expression on Li Jie's face was sometimes painful and sometimes soothing, as if he hadn't been awake for a long time.

"What was this kid asked? What did he answer?" Mr. Liu's eyes widened, "Sage, is this a fellow practitioner from the third line?"

The Master frowned, "The enlightenment questions are all caused by the devil in the heart. This boy looks like a human but not a human, a demon but not a demon. I can't say for sure about this enlightenment question. After all, this is the first time in the world that this human-monster enlightenment has happened."

"You're not sure why you insist on initiating him. Wouldn't it be better for him to practice martial arts? After all, he has a martial arts father who is close to the fifth level." Mr. Liu said, "I really never thought that the initiation of a human demon would be like this."

Before he finished speaking, a demonic aura suddenly appeared on Li Jie's body, and a shadow with nine heads, eight arms and eight wings flashed behind Li Jie.

Mr. Liu exclaimed and said to the Master, "The demon has turned into a demon completely, right?"

The Master waved his hand, "It doesn't matter. If someone is trapped in his body, a little bit of demonic energy will not become a climate."

At this time, the statue in front of Li Jie turned into a human head and a bird's body, shaped like a rooster, with the five colors of a phoenix, and a voice sounded, "What is a human, what is a monster, the weak eat the strong, natural selection."

Li Jie thought of the wolf nature, survival of the fittest, and elite mentioned by the so-called successful people in his previous life, and immediately choked back, "Humans are born from human beings, monsters are born from monsters, and the law of the jungle is nothing more than the strong." Gangster logic.”

The statues dispersed as the words fell, and Li Jie's eyes were empty. At this time, a stone platform appeared in front of him. There was a scroll enshrined on the stone platform. Why did it look so familiar to Li Jie?
The scroll unfolded, and a dazzling light burst out from the scroll. Li Jie felt it was dazzling and covered his eyes with his hands. When the light dissipated, Li Jiefang started, only to see Master and Mr. Liu looking at him with concern.

"Humanity is magnificent and fire is eternal." Master said, "Human scroll chose you in the end."

"Master, am I successful in enlightenment?" Li Jie was still a little dizzy, "But I still feel like I haven't changed much?"

The master smiled and said, "Enlightenment is just the qualification to obtain extraordinary power. As for extraordinary power, you still need to work hard in the future. Taoism calls this Shou Lu, and Buddhism calls it breaking the mortal world. From now on, you are qualified to step into the world of searching for the truth. Don’t forget today on your journey. From today on, you will be my student, you will enter my door and pass on my legacy.”

Li Jie couldn't figure it out for a moment. Today, why can't he forget today? Did he become the master's disciple in his confusion?
I thought that when my enlightenment was over, I would be omnipotent in heaven and earth. Co-writing is like an admission notice. If I want to become stronger, I still have to work hard. The question I just asked is equivalent to the college entrance examination?

Can Master and Mr. Liu, the riddler, explain everything clearly?

The Master turned around and picked up the wreath on the altar table, and said to Li Jie with a smile, "Taoyao's gift to you is very thoughtful. This wreath can calm the mind and protect the mind. It is perfect for you." . Before being dedicated to the will of the saint, and then being baptized by the power of the saint, it has endless wonderful uses."

After saying that, he put the flower crown on Li Jie's head. The flower crown flashed over Li Jie's head. Li Jie felt that his spirit, which was slightly tired due to not sleeping all night last night, was refreshed.

Li Jie touched the top of his head, but there was no sign of the flower crown. He looked at the Master in confusion.The master ignored Li Jie's questioning eyes and stretched out his hand to Mr. Liu, "Your gift."

Mr. Liu smiled, stretched out his hand, took out a wooden sword, and handed it to the Master.

The master took the sword and said to Li Jie, "The sword is the weapon of a gentleman, an upright soldier, and an unyielding blade. It is the first weapon to protect the Tao as a scholar. This sword was made from willow wood struck by lightning for thousands of years, and it has a hint of thunder." Once the true meaning is displayed, the evil spirits will retreat, shining as brightly as the sun in the sky and covering the stars."

Li Jie took it with both hands and ran his fingers along the spine of the sword, feeling a slight tingling sensation.

The master turned over his hand and took out a jade pendant, hung it on his waist for Li Jie, and continued, "A gentleman is like jade, he keeps it in his mouth but does not reveal it. A gentleman has no reason and jade will not be removed from his body. This jade pendant is the symbol of my sect, and it is self-contained inside." The sky and the earth can be used to store things, protect the body, and send messages. Those who hold this jade pendant are disciples of our sect, unyielding to immortals and Buddhas, and not afraid of demons."

After finishing speaking, the master pointed at the center of Li Jie's eyebrows. Li Jie felt a slight chill and then pain in his eyebrows. A drop of blood fell on the jade pendant, and then quickly seeped into it.

Then the Master smiled and said, "I put some books in this jade pendant for you. The way of a scholar is to start with reading."

Li Jie felt that there seemed to be something else beside him, and then he wanted to grab it. He unconsciously stretched out his hand and took out a book from the void.Then he stuffed the book and wooden sword back, looking at the empty palm, he immediately understood that this was the legendary storage instrument. When I read the novel in my previous life, this thing was described as a high-end luxury product, with rings and necklaces. , earrings, belts, and even baggage, but in fact they are all trashy stuff in every novel.There are protagonists, supporting characters, decent bosses, villains, and the most speechless thing is that there may also be a minion. It all depends on what the author thinks.

Just when Li Jie was distracted, the jade pendant lit up slightly, and a rough voice came from the jade pendant, "Young man, you have been accepted by the Master. I am very happy. But I am very depressed. You are now the Master's disciple." Aren't we my equals? No, how can I count this senior brother..."

It was actually the voice of Li Shenhou, whom I hadn't seen for a long time, but these words really left people speechless.

Then I heard another gentle voice coming from the other end of the jade pendant, "Monkey, please don't talk nonsense. Master is by your side, don't be presumptuous. Li Jie, today you are entering the family, and as an uncle, you must express your gratitude. When we meet again in the future, uncle I will give you a meeting gift."

This is, the jade pendant also has a mobile phone function?Is this what subpoena means?But Li Shenhou’s words are really hard to continue talking about. With such an unreliable father, did he make the wrong choice?
Then I heard Li Shenhou continue to say, "Junior brother's son, I went there beforehand, and some people came to ask for beatings without opening their eyes. I really thought that I, Li Shenhou, was easy to bully."

"Master, Monkey and I will take our leave first. I will sort out the matter in Kyoto as soon as possible." Qi Zhu said in a voice.

"Good." Master said.

Mr. Liu waved his hand to take away the altar table, then waved his hand again. A futon appeared under Li Jie's feet, and a desk appeared in front of him. He said to Li Jie, "Sit down."

Li Jie sat down as he was told and saw the Master saying, "I, the Renzong, are most dissatisfied with the Confucian rules and regulations. Although enlightenment is a Confucian ritual, it is also a ritual for my scholars and cannot be abolished. So I simplified it a bit. "Three prostrations and nine obeisances, chanting holy words, officiating officers, etc. are all not required. Only the core essentials of enlightenment are retained to express the will of the saint and open up the question of enlightenment."

"Let's stop talking. Today, I will explain this world to you. It is the first lesson for enlightenment." Seeing the master suddenly stand in awe, Li Jie couldn't help but sit up straight.

"This side of the world is divided into two realms. The land where our human race is established is called the Divine State, and the land where the demon race is called is the mountains and seas."

"In the realm of China, there are currently nine Immortal Kingdoms under the Immortal Court, two Great and Small Vehicle Kingdoms under the Buddha Kingdom, and our human race has one independent dynasty. The sub-human race has countless countries."

"The territory of the Divine State is so vast that I don't know how many tens of millions of miles it is. The creatures in our world have been exploring it for tens of millions of years, but it only accounts for one or two percent of it."

"The realm of mountains and seas, the land of the demon clan, is governed by chaos. There are demon courts, demon dynasties, demon kingdoms, demon alliances, and countless others. The prosperity of the demon clan depends entirely on the demon god's thoughts, which can lead to life and death. "

"In ancient times, China's mountains and seas were connected. Our human race was ignorant. In order to survive and seek shelter, we worshiped demon gods, called witch gods. Demon gods like flesh and blood to give birth to souls. Our human race was reduced to slaves, livestock, and food rations. There was no daylight, and our race was almost exterminated. .”

"Fortunately, since the coming of the saint, my ancestors of the human race have been able to see the light of day after overcoming thorns and thorns."

"The saint was born with wisdom. He is suspected to be the reincarnation of a powerful person from the ancient human race. He led our human race to discover the civilization of the ancient human race, summoned the gods of the ancient human race, and united with other alien races who could not stand the brutal rule of the demon god. They rose up to resist and gradually got rid of the demon god's rule."

"Later the saint established the Taoism, recruited three thousand disciples, and preached to the world. Then there was a transcendent person in our human race. Each disciple either became an immortal, or transformed into a Buddha, or studied the ancient classics to find a new path to transcendence."

Li Jie listened quietly. This was the world view that Master instilled in him, and it was also the first step for him to understand the world. Li Jie felt a little emotional, it was not easy. He had traveled for so long to realize that there were actually two worlds?If I go to the Monster Clan by myself, does it count as time travel?
The Master continued, "The saint became enlightened and divided the two realms of China's mountains and seas. Since then, humans and demons have been separated, and our human race has its own world."

"The sage sensed the shortcomings of heaven and earth, collected the source of all living beings in China, established the way of heaven, determined ethics, and divided yin and yang. From then on, all living beings live and work in peace and contentment under the way of heaven."

"The demon clan was driven out of the mountains and seas, and a powerful demon clan was born, communicating with the will of the mountains, seas, heaven and earth, and incarnating as Taiyi to fight against the way of heaven."

"The demon clan is unwilling to lose all the territory of China. Now they use the strength of the whole clan to invade China. At that time, the saint was exhausted because of establishing the way of heaven. He was unable to destroy the demon clan. He built a mountain between the two realms, named Kunlun. , also known as Liangjie Mountain."

"Our human race relies on the defense line of the Two Realms Mountains to resist the invasion of the demon clan."

"Later, when Taiyi entered the Two Realms Mountain, the Heavenly Dao also entered. From then on, the Two Realms Mountains were entangled by the power of Heavenly Dao and Taiyi and formed a system of their own."

"The saints established the twelve kingdoms of the divine state, which were the Xia, Shang, Zhou, Qin, Han, Jin, Sui, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. They were taken from Zhengshuo of the ancient human race. The shaman god with twelve hearts towards the human race was the totem of the twelve dynasties."

Li Jie almost stood up when he heard the Twelve Zhengguo. Isn't this the Twelve Unified Dynasties of Chinese Civilization?Ancient human race?Is this because he has not traveled to other worlds, but tens of millions of years after the destruction of civilization?That's not right, things like gods and ghosts don't make sense at all in my previous life, but it also doesn't make sense for me to travel through time.

I want to get to the bottom of it, but I don’t know where to start.

Li Jie thought about it and was about to say something, but saw Mr. Liu stop him with a look, and Mr. Liu's voice rang in his heart, "Master is teaching, don't interrupt."

I heard the Master continue to say, "The Twelve True Kingdoms lasted for ten thousand years until the Immortals and Buddhas passed down their own Taoism in the Liangjie Mountain. The descendants of the Immortals and Buddhas' Taoism overthrew the Shaman Dynasty and established the Immortal Buddha Kingdom."

"The Taoism of our human race is passed down from the three thousand descendants of the saint. The three thousand sages are gradually divided into several categories: those who seek immortality and seek enlightenment, those who worship Buddha for enlightenment, those who study the ancient classics, and those who seek new paths."

"In the beginning, the immortals were the backers of people. The saints established the system of cultivating immortals based on the ancient cultivation classics combined with the wizard's way developed by the worship of witch gods. After cultivating immortals to a certain level, their names will be engraved on the Heaven's Guide, and they will be immortal from now on. It is immortal, but it becomes a follower of the way of heaven and protects the operation of the way of heaven. The end of the cultivation of the way of immortality is to become the way of heaven. Every 330 three years, the immortal can be reincarnated once in a calamity, which seems to be a gift from the way of heaven. After the calamity, the immortal will always have a great enlightenment. , practice diligently."
