Changsheng: I, Cao, can see the prompt

Chapter 508 Man is about to die

At this point, Yunhai spread the remaining bait on the water surface, attracting groups of fish and shrimps to compete for food. During the scramble, the small fish ate the shrimps, and the big fish swallowed the small fish.

Seeing this, he sighed, washed his hands in the pool, shook them twice, and then slowly stood up.

Cao Wei went to help him, but was gently pushed away by Yun Hai with a smile.

Then he said slowly: "I'm not so old that I can't even walk, but I, an old man, really don't have much time. I can't protect all of you monkeys anymore. Xuanhong, you are also Yuan now." You are in the middle stage of infancy, and no one will treat you as a junior anymore. Once those old guys take it seriously, they will do anything they can. You have to be careful in the future, and you have to fight everything on your own."

"Although Wuxiang has become a god, after he reaches this position, all the clans outside are watching, and people inside the clan are also watching. He can no longer show his favoritism to help you like before. No matter Wuxiang, Regardless of Kim, once they enter the Hall of Elders, their every move will no longer be a personal issue, but will represent the common interests of all monks in the human race, and is the hub that maintains the forces of all parties in the race."

Speaking of this, he thought about it again and then said:

"In this world, there have been monks who transformed into gods like Xiu She, but the ethnic group they belong to cannot be called a big ethnic group. One of them lies in their own background. For example, from the great wilderness and catastrophe, the ancestors of our human race came from the divine dynasty. Each clan gnawed off a large piece of flesh and blood and plundered countless cultivation resources. The part they left behind when they ascended to the Upper Mysterious Realm was the capital for the human race to gain a foothold in the Lower Xuan Realm. From the beginning, there was little to say Hundreds of ethnic groups are like this, but Xuanhong, why do you think there are only nine major ethnic groups left?"

"I think it's because the establishment of the Elders' Hall united all the forces in the clan, right?" Cao Wei said slowly.

The Great Desolate Tribulation was about 240,000 to 450,000 years ago, and the Human Race Elder Hall was established about 210,000 years ago. There was a blank period of 30,000 to 40,000 years in between. According to the longevity of the monks who transformed into gods, this period It took at least six or seven generations before and after the time, but there are few documents recording its history!

In other words, with his cultivation as a monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, he is not yet qualified to watch!

This situation is extremely abnormal. However, this can also show that this period should have been an extremely chaotic and disorderly world, and what happened was not glorious, otherwise the Elder Hall would not have been able to hide the words.

"To be more precise, it should be that when the human race reached the point where it became inevitable, favorable conditions were created for the birth of the Elder Hall. In fact, our human race is not a native creature born in the Lingxuan Realm. We originally came from Ling Huan Realm." Yun Hai said slowly.

"No wonder our human race is targeted by other ethnic groups!" Cao Wei said with a look of astonishment on his face and a compliment.

"But how many monks can practice to the Mahayana realm?" Yunhai said with a smile.

This is the limit for monks to practice according to the twenty-seventh level of the Nine Realms. If you want to live forever, you have to go out of your own way, condense the Tao Fruit, and entrust it to the Tao Principles that maintain the operation of the spiritual world, so as to live as long as this world. , completely getting rid of the shackles of Shouyuan, jumping out of the Three Realms, and not in the Five Elements.

With the changes in the world, the innate advantages of the human race have become more and more prominent. In addition, the creation of the Elder Hall, a community of interests, has unified the large and small cultivation forces within the human race and twisted them into a rope.

Other ethnic groups do not have this innate condition. They need to be enlightened in order to get rid of ignorance. In the past, when the spirit world was plentiful, it was easy for all living beings to become wise, and those powerful monks could solve them by summoning an imperial ooze. But with the current situation in the Xuan Realm, how can there be enough inspiration?

In the next more than two hundred thousand years, the human race, on the one hand, accumulated its own strength to ensure that each generation of god-forming monks continued to maintain its deterrence on the surface; on the other hand, through alliances, or set off large and small After small foreign conquests, he slowly established his status as a great clan from a situation where thousands of clans were competing against each other.

"Indeed, when it comes to it, we are just toddlers." Cao Wei nodded and said.

The lifespan of an ordinary Mahayana monk is one yuan, which is one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred years.

And this Nascent Soul stage has just left the low-level monks and reached the middle level. In the future, there will be great realms such as transformation into gods, caves, integration, transcending tribulations, Mahayana and so on.

Hearing this, Cao Wei looked thoughtful and asked: "Master, do you mean that during this period of time, I shouldn't go out to collect the things Ming Yong left behind?"

That's why even though the Elder's Palace has entrusted various regions in the Western Wilderness to various sects, it still has to assess the mortals under their rule every hundred years. It has nothing to do with people's livelihood, but with the increase or decrease in population.

There are thousands of monks in the southern border of Chongwu Domain, but only a few can conceive babies.

From birth to adulthood, the human race only takes more than ten years, and they have sufficient intelligence.

Seeing that Cao Wei understood, Yun Hai nodded lightly and said slowly: "So the human race can achieve today's situation by relying on generations of people. It is really not easy! Xuanhong, in the eyes of our ancestors, you are our The monks of the sect are the Nascent Soul of our human race, but fellow Taoists from other domains may not necessarily think so. In the past, if your clan could not escape from the world, your status would not rise or fall, but now the world is about to change, and you have to wait and wait for many years. The opportunity is coming. But the more you get to this time, the more cautious you must be. A journey of a hundred miles is only half a mile, and a thousand-foot pole must be climbed again."

Upon hearing this, Yunhai chuckled: "The reason why the human race is targeted by all parties is because we have violated their original interests. In fact, other races that have given birth to Mahayana monks are not all natives of Lingxuan. Realm. It’s just that the three spiritual realms of Lingxuan, Linghuan and Linglong where we are located can carry all kinds of Mahayana Tao and fruits at the same time. As the Wanfa Tao becomes more and more complete, it will be easier for us monks to practice. This attracts Monks from the lower realms from all over the world swarmed in. Of course, in addition to this, the most important thing is that among the three spiritual worlds, once the monks reach the stage of becoming gods, there is no longer a limit to their lifespan. Instead, every Disasters, big and small, come at intervals."

"But one calamity is better than the next. Once a monk cannot bear it, he will die. According to the classics, if you cannot understand the mystery of Yuan Hui, even the Mahayana will one day be degenerated." Cao Wei said slowly.

The Elder Hall usually draws a red line for each sect to ensure the foundation of the human race.

And with the big monk Yunhai's slight tap, Cao Wei understood what the other party meant.

Speaking of this, he changed the topic back and said: "However, the struggle among all races after the collapse of the Great Wilderness Divine Dynasty is not as clear as the practice. The reason why our race can stand out is more important. It’s because of the two divisions of the Lingxuan Realm.”

As long as there are a sufficient number of mortals as carriers, there will naturally be no shortage of seedlings with spiritual root qualifications in the human cultivation world.

"It's also a kind of luck to have prospects. At least we can see the way forward." Yunhai said with a smile.

"There are no outsiders here now, so I don't have to be taboo about anything. This old man, Mingyong, is in this situation, and he hasn't calmed down at all. He still wants to lure you with benefits. If you go and step out of the Western Wasteland, I believe that you will encounter interceptions from all sides along the way, and among them we human monks will definitely be included. If you die in their hands, the bridge between the human race and the clan will be broken." Yun Hai said slowly.

"Will the great monks among the various tribes put down their dignity and bully the younger ones?" Cao Wei asked.

Upon hearing this, Yun Hai smiled and said: "What do you think? That's all. I just like to talk more when I get older. Now even I feel that I am annoying, so I won't say it anymore."

"The master teaches earnestly and sincerely, but the disciples and grandsons can't get enough of it, so how can they be annoyed?" Cao Wei said with a smile.

"You kid, put away all these polite words here! Xuanhong, take a look at your smiling face now. You have been smiling like this for five hundred years. It seems polite, but you can't. But it can't help but reveal vitality. Everyone in this world wears a mask, sometimes for so long that even he forgets his own appearance and doesn't know how to take it off." Yun Hai shook his head lightly.

Speaking of this, he patted Cao Wei on the shoulder a few times, and then smiled proudly like a child: "It can be considered as wiping my hands clean."

I saw some water stains and wrinkles on Cao Wei's clothes on his shoulders.

He glanced sideways and couldn't help but frown slightly. With a slight movement of mana, the clothes returned to their original state, becoming dry and smooth again. "You haven't recovered from your hysteria yet?" Yun Hai asked.

"It won't get better if you get used to it!" Cao Wei sighed lightly.

"Hysteria in people stems from cowardice. When the symptoms appear, there are many doubts in the heart, and there is no sense of security!" Yun Hai said slowly.

Speaking of this, he sighed: "This may be related to your childhood experience. A small child lost his soul in a mass grave. When he woke up, he was begging all the way. The road was not peaceful. If you encountered scissors, A strong man with a sharp sword will be dead with one strike. If he encounters a Yaman and is captured and sold into slavery, it will be considered a blessing. I am afraid that the other person makes a living by harvesting and cutting raw materials. That would be a real life. It’s better to die.”

"Master, if you don't tell me, even I have forgotten all this." Cao Wei looked melancholy.

When he first came to this world and was in a mass grave, he once saw a jackal and wild dog with red eyes, roaring in a low voice, dragging out a rolled-up straw mat that exuded a putrid smell. body, and they tore it apart during the fight.

Before these corpses were thrown into mass graves, most of them, men, women, old and young, were stripped clean, and some of the more respectable ones were wrapped in a straw mat.

When he saw this scene, Cao Wei, who had just woken up, thought that he was already in the underworld.

But when he walked out of the forest and saw what he saw and heard on the road, he realized that he was already in a completely unfamiliar world, and this world was not peaceful as Master Yunhai said.

A child in his teens who does not carry amulets, stickers, tooth tags, etc. that can prove his identity is equivalent to a savage. Anyone can capture him and escort him to the government in exchange for a reward.

It is precisely because of this that Cao Wei only had the option of becoming a beggar at that time. Even when he went to the nearest town, he tried his best to get in.

And life in the city is not peaceful either. Beggars all have their own niches. As a newbie, if he accidentally crosses the line, he will often be beaten.

To put it bluntly, the swill buckets in the backyards of restaurants and inns had long been occupied by other beggars, and he couldn't even try to eat the sour ones.

In normal times, if Cao Wei had to ask for one or two coppers, he would not be able to keep it tomorrow because he had to pay homage to those beggars.

How could he feel safe in this environment?

As for a person who has hands and feet, why should he become a beggar? If he makes other livelihoods, how can he have enough food and clothing?

It's just that he is a person of unknown origin. He is not even qualified to be an apprentice or an errand boy. How can he do other things?

"You said you forgot, but actually you remember it most clearly." Yunhai said slowly.

After seeing the scene reflected in Pixiu Wen's heart mirror, he combined Cao Wei's experience in the secular world with the habits that the other party inadvertently revealed in his daily life, and they met and confirmed each other.

Therefore, we can conclude that Cao Wei, this disciple, is a person who is extremely insecure in his heart.

And the series of lascivious and dissolute behaviors he has experienced since he became famous are a kind of revenge mentality of muddling through and enjoying the time.

Regarding this, Zhenjun Xiaguang, the ancestor of the sect who was in office at the time, could naturally see this.

These old guys who have lived for thousands of years have long summarized their own ways of looking at people and things. They can infer Cao Wei's psychological state through his behavior and analyze his character.

At that time, not long after Cao Wei joined the sect, Xiaguang arranged for him to go to the secular world through Kui Lie, and immediately accepted him as a true disciple of the sect after returning to the sect.

This move was more or less intended to bring some peace of mind to Cao Wei, so that he could unknowingly identify with the sect more.

"People just have great memories. Sometimes you have to learn to forget, so that you won't feel so much pain!" Cao Wei sighed softly.

During these hundreds of years, he had always subconsciously not thought too much about worldly experiences.

Now, with a few words and a few words from his master, everything from yesterday seems to appear more clearly in his mind.

"But if you forget too much, you will never be able to find your roots again. Escape is not the solution. Xuanhong, since you have lost yourself in the secular world, you have to go to the secular world to find it back. At this level If you can't pass it, even if you can break through to the late Nascent Soul stage, you still won't be able to cross the threshold of becoming a god." Yun Hai said slowly.

"Nowadays, my disciple and grandson have many affairs. I'm afraid I don't have time right now, and we can wait until Shao Kang passes away to discuss this matter!" Cao Wei nodded and said.

At present, he has just broken through the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and he can just use it to consolidate his current state. It can be said that the reason is sufficient, and others can't find any mistakes.

Upon hearing this, Yunhai nodded lightly: "Actually, you have an open heart and arrangements for many things! It's just that you always like to keep everything in your heart, which is not good."

Speaking of this, he turned over his hand and took out a jade slip, handed it over, and said: "This is the method that Xuanbei has learned in his life. You should try to understand it thoroughly. Bodhi can only be found in the heart, and there is no need to seek mysteries from outside. Practitioners You have to have a firm mind, otherwise swallowing Ming like this will not shake your mind and influence your behavior!"

"Master, have you seen it?" Cao Wei took the jade slip and asked.

"I'm not too old-sighted. You all are too troublesome. I'm an old man. I have to go find Wujiu and Bingzheng later. It's time to have a good chat with them. , otherwise there will be no chance." Yunhai said with a smile.

As he spoke, he turned into a startling rainbow and galloped away into the distance.
