When Qi Wuhu turned around and left, the sea of ​​flowers behind gradually closed, like a door closed. When the sea of ​​flowers gradually closed, the place behind him, which was like a worldly immortal practicing, disappeared in Qi Wuhu's sense of consciousness.

Qi Wuhuo walked to the old man and handed the jade slip to him. The old man did not show any sadness or disappointment, and was still gentle and quiet.

Let the disciples choose their own path.

Such a grand gentle compassion is too vast and vast, and if others think it is almost ruthless.

The palm brushed over the jade slip, and the two words Yumiao on the jade slip disappeared, but the old man did not smash the jade slip again, but gave it to Qi Wuhuo. This time his choice was like the previous Yuyang

The senior brother was different, so he said gently: "Five hundred years later, you will come to see her again and ask the same question again."

"See how she answers."

Qi Wuhuo thought about something. As long as he pursues the path, can he wait?

The old man turned around and left with Qi Wuhuo and slowly left. This time he did not ask Qi Wuhuo what he felt. One old and one young, he slowly walked on the road outside the Yumiao's seclusion place.

The flowers bloom on the side and the fragrance is rich. The flowers have grown as tall as the boy's waist. When walking through this road, butterflies dance and land on the boy's shoulders.

After a while of silence, the boy asked, "Teacher, is this the Taoist couple?"

The old man shook his head and smiled gently, "Of course not."

"There are many kinds of sects of our Taoist sect passed down, and the Dharma veins have spread out, and gradually there are many sayings spread out, but just like a misunderstanding of the spirit and spirit, there are also misunderstandings between the Dharma and the land of wealth.

A particularly deep-seated Dao couple does not mean a couple in the world. If a couple is a Taoist couple, why bother to create a word specifically?”

"It was originally because of the impermanence of destiny."

"The monks also have to face all kinds of disasters, disasters, life and death."

"The disease is supported by the law, and life and death are the same. This is the Taoist partner."

The old man joked: "In other words, it is to support each other on the road of cultivation."

"The original meaning is, walk together on this road, if you die, I will bury you continue to move forward, if I die, don't be sad, there are green mountains everywhere, where isn't the way back? Bury me, keep looking forward

The road seeking Tao, the so-called Taoist couple, is just like this."

This sentence was a bit joking at the beginning, but when it came later, Qi Wuhuo felt a great vast feeling. In just a moment, a few words had far exceeded the compassion of his senior sister.

The boy paused slightly. Looking at the teacher's back, he suddenly felt that the back was obviously only one step, but it was so far away.

The old man stopped and looked back at him.

He said gently: "What's wrong with Wuhuo?"

Qi Wuhuo shook his head: "There's nothing."

He thought for a while and asked, "Senior sister and senior brother should also know that they cannot be attached to fame. There is also the meaning of Taoist couples, right?"

The old man replied: "Yes, but [know], [holding the way], [the ultimate way]."

"But it is three different realms."

"If you know, you may not be able to execute it, and execution may not be able to reach it. The great way cannot be reached by making a vow. There are many difficulties and hardships along the way, and various tortures. Taoist couples are easy to walk because they practice alone.

It's only necessary to enter the dark room."

"So, as soon as the Taoist couple says, you must first choose someone, and then become a Taoist couple."

"You cannot fall in love, if you fall in love, you will be in your heart; you must not know, if you don't know, you will be separated."

"The Taoist couple has three combinations, which is called enlightenment, wisdom, and ambition."

"There are also three disagreements, unclear, no wisdom, and no ambition."

The old man stretched out his hand to touch Qi Wuhuo's hair and suddenly joked: "Why, Wuhuo is also thinking about finding a Taoist partner?"

"Do you want the teacher to introduce the exiled immortal of the Cui family to you?"

"That exiled immortal is indeed a person with a strong heart of Taoism."

"If you don't rely on the Emperor's Talisman in the future, you can gather three flowers to the top and lift the clouds to ascend."

Qi Wuhuo never expected that the fire could still burn on him. His face suddenly stopped and turned a little red, and he said seriously: "Teacher, don't joke."

So the old man burst into laughter.

It seems that teasing this little disciple with a clean and honest heart will make him feel very happy.

He stroked his beard and sighed: "The Taoist couple is also the basic of practice. It is not for love, but for the great way, reflecting each other and supporting each other."

"Is love wrong? No, who doesn't have a attachment?"

"It's just that I'm not a person in my way."

"Just as I said to you, I am looking for fellow Taoists."

"They have their own choices, and they are all right, but our way is also right."

"They walk their own way, and we also follow our path, no right or wrong, no high or low, but choose, when you are destined to be together for a while, when you are not destined to be away, you don't have to be attached to each other, and you don't have to worry about it. ,”

"The origin of cause and destruction."

“That’s all.”

"Your senior sister has taken another path, so you can wait for her for the time being."

He led the boy forward, and Qi Wuhuo gradually gained some insights in his heart, but those understandings were still a little blurry, not clear enough, not specific enough, and felt that many ideas and principles collided in his mind, just when he was thinking , and his aura gradually settled down, like a stubborn stone, with uncensored jade inside, being hit by the world, and being in a trace of being about to open but not opened.

The old man said in a gentle voice: "Let's go and see the next one..."

So the young Taoist understood that this path of asking one's heart could not be over yet.

He said yes, followed the old man and moved forward step by step.

What a long road this is, and we must take the experience and life of these Xuanmen disciples as the length.

After that, several senior brothers and sisters, Qi Wuhuo went to witness it one by one.

They all have their own persistence, each of them is talented and powerful, not much better than Qi Wuhuo, or they are devoted to mountains and rivers, and have no desire to pursue the great way, or they like to play in the world, and show saints in the world, Qi Wu Huo personally took back their jade slips. The old man would ask him every time, what he had gained?

Every time I ask, is their choice right or wrong?

Every time Qi Wuhuo answers, no mistakes.

But every time, the young Taoist thought for a longer time.

When the last question was asked, the young Taoist suddenly felt something and replied:

"Disciple understands."

"Each of them has their own persistence and their own choices, but there is nothing wrong. It is not wrong to keep their name in future generations, it is not wrong to rely on mountains and rivers, it is not wrong to have love and be willing to stay together for generations. Things are just your own choice just like choosing the road.”

"Who said that in the eyes of sentient beings, they must surpass what they pursue?"

"If this is the case, the world will be boring."

The old man smiled and said, "Good good."

He was quite happy and said, "You can realize this by yourself. This gift has also been taken. If you are a stubborn stone, this walk will have no effect except for alertness. You and I should separate here.

But now, it is not the case. You can mention the heights of your practice with a little bit, which is a perfect word for mystery.”

The old man shook his sleeves, then sat casually under two pine trees, on a bluestone, and asked with a gentle smile:

"Can you know if the immortal is unconfused?"

Qi Wuhuo nodded and replied: "Walking in the North Sea and the evening of Cangwu, you can achieve immortality, have supernatural powers, and have thousands of wonderful methods, and cannot be described."

The old man said: "Can you know the level of the immortal god?"

This is the knowledge that the boy didn't know in the past, so he said, "Please teach me the teacher."

The old man stroked his beard and said, "Ordinary Qi Refiners have gone the wrong path, breathed their vitality and spread their spirits, and only knew how to cultivate their nature but not their life."

"Those who enter the lowest level are the ones who are corpse-relieving immortals."

"Although I have three or five hundred years of life, I cannot obtain the great way or freedom."

"Although it is called an immortal, it is actually a ghost."

"It's the wrong path and the end of those who are eager for quick success and instant benefits, so there is no confusion."

"And ordinary practitioners breathe and cultivate qi, practice life, and do not realize the great way."

"Get a method in the Tao, and a technique in the Dharma. Faith and aspirations will never change in the whole life. The five elements of the energy are misunderstood, and the form and quality are solid, and finally we reach the path of the three flowers gathering, such a state,

It can be called a human immortal."

Qi Wuhuo suddenly realized and said, "It's Senior Brother Yu Yangzi..."

The old man nodded and said lightly: "A person like him has accumulated external achievements, but he is too persistent and cannot even be considered a seeker. He will occasionally have good fortune in the future. He will go all the way to the earth to the land of the mountain god, and go all the way to the underworld to the ghosts and ghosts.

If you take the City God, or receive the talisman, ascend to the Heavenly Palace, become an ordinary immortal, work hard and never have time to relax all day, you can get a pill to extend your life."

"Although they are immortals, they are just ordinary. There are many such officials under the names of the great emperors and gods in the heavenly court."

"In the sky, it is the heavenly official; in the earth, it is the earth official; in the water, it is the water official."

The old man said again: "Those who are taller than humans and immortals can already see through these attachments but are difficult to let go. They have already realized the truth but cannot escape. They are trapped in the eight difficulties of Taoism."

"He was originally a talent of heaven and earth, but he was obsessed with it. He realized it but did not escape it, and he would eventually achieve a small success."
