126, Chapter 126(1/2)
Even though he knew Yun Weisi's thoughts, Jiufang Changming was not ready to respond.
In his opinion, at first it was just a restlessness with no place to place for a young man's feelings. Even if the monk was indifferent to his state of mind, Yun Weisi was still a young man after all. The other party was full of family feuds and had nowhere to vent, so he could only endure his impatience and project his remembrance of his family on the master who was with him day and night. This was also his yearning for and even pursuit of the strong.
It’s not that Jiufang Changming has never met admirers. On the contrary, he has many admirers, some unwilling opponents, some women who want to become a Taoist partner with him, some are purely attracted by his kindness, and some are frightened by his cultivation and worshipping the strong.
For him, Yun Weisi was not much different from these people.
But they are masters and apprentices after all, and Jiufang Changming is still a little more tolerant towards him than others.
I don’t want to see my disciples indulge in my children’s relationships, so Changming sent him down the mountain to experience it. I hope that after he comes back, he can figure it out and his cultivation level will be higher.
At this time, Nine Fronts Eternal Bright encounters unprecedented difficulties.
His cultivation is enough to reach the peak of the world, and he defeated the Lord of the Shenxiao Immortal Palace with a half-match at the Qianlin Conference, making the Jade Emperor Temple stand out and vaguely become the number one person in the world. Everyone thinks that he will be the best monk in the future. What many people don’t know is that he is lingering day and night by the trouble of stopping.
Jiufang Changming realized that his understanding of Taoism had reached its limit and was the peak of the cultivator's ability. However, he vaguely felt an invisible obstacle standing in front of him, blocking him from going further and affecting his ascension to become an immortal, but he could never find the key point and break through the invisible and intangible obstacle.
At that time, he did not know that Luo Mei Zhenren had encountered the same problem decades ago. In the end, because he could not solve it, he was unwilling to cooperate with the demons. Jiufang Changming chose another way. He wanted to go to the sect, gather the strengths of a hundred schools, and create another mental method to ask about the great way of heaven without any obstacles. People with talented and enlightened nature in the world no longer have to be limited by the sect. Even casual cultivators can still cultivate immortals.
This ambition is too grand and lofty. Even if he is as arrogant as him, he must not fail to make plans for a long time.
The Taoist sects have similar laws. He thought he had reached the realm of transformation here, so he had the idea of leaving the Jade Emperor Temple and going to Buddhism.
Buddha practices the hidden dragon and the creeping tiger, and is full of experts. Maybe there will be opportunities to solve the problem.
Yun Wei thought about what he wanted was just a little lingering and short-lived private relationship. Nine directions always expressed their hearts towards the great way. He had no intention of personal relationships at all, and he did not want his disciples to be obsessed with it. Like the disciple of Jade Emperor Guan who had become a Taoist partner with He Yunyun, he personally ruined his future.
So he completely left the Jade Emperor Temple, and embarked on the path of Buddhist cultivation without any nostalgia.
Although Qingyun Zen Temple is one of the two Buddhist sects, it has been suppressed by the Wanlian Buddha Land for many years. It is naturally welcome to join monks like Jiufang Changming. It even gives Jiufang Changming the supreme honorary treatment, respecting him as a Buddhist son, allowing him to come and go freely, and not having to be bound by the rules of the Zen Temple like ordinary disciples.
He followed the customs of the countryside and worshiped Zen Master Yiye to practice. He practiced in the morning class and evening. He never missed the Nine Lands Eternal Ming, who once shocked the world, became a disciple of Qingyun Zen Temple. There were many discussions in the world, and it was like a breeze passing by.
Zen Master Yiye is not the head of the school, but the hermit with the highest cultivation level in the Zen temple. He rarely teaches any secrets of the mind, nor does he teach fighting and killing people step by step. He is more like a long-time friend. The two may not say a sentence for three days and three nights, and maybe they will beat the maneuver for twelve consecutive hours. If Changming wants to win Yiye, he must carefully study the Buddhist scriptures of Zen temple, study all the Buddhist scriptures, and memorize them like a stream. In this way, he can learn from other things and use his understanding to avoid being inferior to Yiye's defense.
The two of them sit opposite each other, not only verbal arguments, but also occasionally mixed with the fighting of cultivation.
When two top experts in the world confront each other, no one in the Zen Temple dares to disturb him.
This day, heavy snow fell.
The two of them have been debating the Dharma for two consecutive days, and Changming seems to have made a breakthrough. Master Yiye smiled knowingly and waited for the other party's cultivation to further improve.
The paper bird flew from the west and couldn't linger in the sky.
This is Yun Weisi's message of help.
On that day, Jiufang Changming taught the other party the art of paper bird transmission. This was the first time Yun Weisi used it in so many years. He must have his life and his life was in danger.
The bird could not enter the barrier set by the two, and flapped its wings anxiously, shaking in the wind and snow.
Zen Master Yiye frowned slightly and looked at the bird. He was about to be driven away by a snap of his fingers and prevented him from disturbing the Nine Lands. However, his heart felt something, and his hand stretched out stopped.
Perhaps this bird is also a test.
Zen Master Yiye quietly stared at the eternal brightness of the nine directions.
The other party's body was faint, and the clouds gathered in the sky, as if there were strange phenomena.
If you can break through this state, you will be one step closer to the way of heaven.
Yiye knew that he could not ascend in this life, but he had an open-minded mind and was willing to fulfill a genius.
Because he knew that the other party was more sensible than him and closer to the realm of heaven and man.
But at this moment, Jiufang Changming opened his eyes.
The golden light suddenly disappeared and was converged cleanly.
He lost the precious opportunity to advance in a close way.
I won’t come early or late, but it’s this time.
Zen Master Yiye sighed slightly and waved his sleeve to remove the barrier.
The bird rushed in, turned into a letter in front of Changming, and fell lightly on his hands. After reading it, it burned, and sparks lit up.
Jiufang Changming was silent for a while and said to Zen Master Yiye: "I have to leave for a while."
Zen Master Yiye: "You are only half a step away from breaking through. If you leave this door, all your previous efforts will be wasted."
Jiufang Changming: "My former disciples were in trouble and could not save them when they were killed."
Zen Master Yiye: "Since you have been clear before, you have already entered Buddhism and you will break with Taoism."
Jiufang Changming was silent.
"If you want to give up, if you want to give up, how can you get it? Today is only half a step away from your sudden enlightenment, but you have all your previous efforts. Nine directions, you seem to be ruthless, but in fact you have infinite concerns."
"He has a great understanding, and I teach it with my heart and soul, but I just cherish my talents."
Zen Master Yiye looked at him with an expression of "Why do you have to deceive yourself?"
"If you don't give up, you will be worried. Concern is also emotional. There are thousands of emotions in the world, and if you move one heart, you will be moved. Whether it is Buddha or Tao, you will be different. We always focus on forgetting the state of love, eliminating troubles, Jade Emperor Temple, Qingyun Zen Temple, all kinds of human affairs here will be the worldly fate you need to forget in the future. If you cannot cut off these ties, you will never truly reach the realm of heaven and man."
Jiufang Changming shook his head.
"I never believe that I can only ascend to the point of being filled with love. The world's great paths are three thousand, just because I cannot get the door. The practice of immortality is itself an obsession that cannot be given up. According to the Zen Master, isn't it the same concern and emotion?"
Zen Master Yiye thought carefully and understood vaguely that what the other party wanted to take was another path that was completely different from the vast majority of monks for thousands of years. However, even if his cultivation level was extremely strong, it was hard to imagine what it was.
"You have decided?"
"I have decided."
This was the last conversation between the two, and it was also the last time Zen Master Yiye saw Jiufang Changming.
Since that day, Jiufang Changming has never come back, and even his disciple Sun Bukuo has not been able to find him.
Until Zen Master Yiye heard that he had turned to the Demon Sect and became a Demon Cultivator.
The world was shocked. His former disciples announced their rebellion and became enemies and pursued his master. Only Zen Master Yi Ye knew that Jiufang Changming had never changed his original intention and he had been moving in the direction he had determined.
But Zen Master Yiye did not know how far the Nine-Term Changming could go, because the next year he was transformed because his life was over and could not break through.
Naturally, he didn't know that on the way back, Nine-way Changming discovered a secret on Wanshen Mountain, thus revealing the huge conspiracy that had been back a hundred years.
In the dark, everything is integrated and gathers into a river, flowing endlessly.
The ice and snow fell on the eyelashes and slowly condensed.
His breath was weak and almost nothing, and even his body became cold and stiff.
Arong was anxious and wanted to use spiritual power to warm him, but it was just a drop in the bucket and was useless.
Even Arong knew that Jiufang Changming, who met by chance, was not a ruthless person, but people in the world had seen him alone and recklessly. Taoist Buddhism, throwing him away as soon as he said, and his disciples turned against him, turned against him, and only Yun Weisi and Arong in front of him did not look at him wrongly.
Changming let out a sigh, as if he was sighing.
"senior?"
Arong just thought he woke up and was surprised for a moment, and soon discovered that it was just a physical reaction of the other party's "sleeping".
Jiufang Changming wanted to even Zhou Ke who was trapped in the Wanlian Buddha Land to rescue him, but he would never indulge Zhou Ke to practice the magic skills.
He can also tolerate Sun Buku going against his own beliefs, but he rarely interferes with Sun Buku's future.
He asked himself that he had not spoiled himself or treated him poorly, but he only owed Yun Weisi and owed him a lot.
The plants and trees are still moving, and even more so that they are in the hearts of the people.
But is soft-heartedness and guilt true love?
Yun Weiming wants what he wants, can he give it?
Deep in the sea of consciousness, he could not answer this question, and his body frowned, but could not wake up.
Memories back to that time, he left the Wanlian Buddha Land, followed the help message from his disciples, and found the seriously injured Yun Weisi in the ice forest of the Dharma Mountains.
It turned out that Yun Weisi was a big shot at the Qianlin Conference because of the Lord of the Shenxiao Immortal Palace. His Chunchao Sword was also targeted by the demon cultivator. The other party knew that he must have been injured in the fight. He sneaked and attacked and siege when he left Qianlin Conference and wanted to kill people and seize treasures. Yun Weisi was outnumbered at the time. He was already half-cock. He didn't even notice that he subconsciously sent a message to his master for help, and he didn't expect that he had left the Taoist sect and that his master who would take care of himself would come over in the future.
Jiufang Changming defeated the serious injuries of the people, and walked down the mountain with Yun Weisi who was drowsy and unable to move.
“Master…”
"Um."
"Why save me?"
"Because you are my disciple."
"You're lying."
Yun Weisi was confused, his head pressed against the back of his neck, and a chuckle came, even his body shook slightly.
"You have said that when we are practicing outside, we will bear the right and wrong, success or failure. You have never changed what you say, but now you go against what you have said. Because you are soft-hearted, Master, you are soft-hearted to me. Is this saying that perseverance in gold and stone can be carved is actually true?"
Jiufang Changming did not answer.
After that, there was a long silence between the master and the apprentice.
Yun Weisi seemed to have fallen asleep and no longer spoken. Even though she woke up later, she never mentioned the conversation between the two.
He gave up his cultivation and fulfilled his promises throughout his life.
To be continued...
