"Do you think it's normal?"
Tian Lao was not surprised by Liu Xiaojiang's words. He stared at his gifted disciple and said:
"Being a teacher means that since there is a legend about the grandmaster's emergence and flight, why are fewer and fewer people who can emerge and fly later, and even now they have almost completely disappeared
Is this normal? "
"... it should be abnormal." Liu Xiaojiang said thoughtfully, "since there are sects that have been handed down for more than a thousand years, it shows that the ancestors are willing to preach, so they will start a mountain and establish a sect
Since the grandparents are willing to preach,
Naturally, they will also give their disciples very generously. "
"After all, if the way passed on by the patriarch is not correct, it will not be of any use to the disciples' cultivation, and the sect can not pass on for so long......"
"Boy, you're wrong again."
Tian Lao shook his head and said, "this situation is actually very normal. Naturally, there will be no problem with the way taught by the grandparents."
"But I think that the grandmaster may eventually feel that it is better to teach people fish than to teach people fish. He only teaches the way to understand the Tao, rather than forcibly cramming a part of the Tao he understands to those disciples who do not understand the Tao."
"After all..."
"The way of heaven is so complex and changeable. Even if the ancestors get the way, they may not have understood all the way of heaven. They may only understand a small part of the truth of the way of heaven. In this case, they forcibly teach the way to other disciples,
It is tantamount to killing other possibilities of the disciples. "
"Of course..."
"These are all my boring guesses. You just take it as a possible situation."
"In addition, as a teacher, I guess there may be another possibility, that is, the grandparents do not want to teach the Tao they understand, but can't......"
"As a teacher, I guess that although the ancestors have transcended to another realm, they have also failed to really get rid of the coercion of the way of heaven. On the contrary, they may be more restricted than ordinary people. As a result, even if they want to preach with other disciples, they can't afford some punishment after preaching."
"Maybe that's why..."
"Only in the end can ordinary disciples get an opportunity from their ancestors, an opportunity to make it possible for them to understand the Tao in the future."
"Master, is this opportunity the skill in the door?" Liu Xiaojiang heard something misty for a moment.
"Wrong! Wrong again!"
Tian Lao felt helpless and said, "Xiaojiang, although you have a high talent in cultivation, your understanding of the Tao... Is not even as thorough as some Taoist children in the mountain."
"What we practice on the mountain is Taoism. We learn from the thoughts and understanding of Taoism left by our ancestors in countless ancient books, which is by no means our own strength, because both the golden light mantra and the so-called five thunder Dharma are also the results obtained in the process of seeking Taoism
Remember,
We do not practice for strength, but because we practice, we have strength. "
"What's the point of cultivating Taoism if it's not for strength?" Liu Xiaojiang said dismissively.
"Bastard! You know power! No wonder you covet the so-called eight wonders!"
Tian Lao scolded: "of course, we practice Taoism for meditation! For our self-cultivation! There is also a immortal way to live forever at most! Although most strangers are like you now, as a person seeking Tao
You'd better not crave too much power! "
"... I see."
Liu Xiaojiang shrugged disapprovingly and said, "however, what do you say about Baqi skills? Don't you have agreed not to force disciples to give up Baqi skills?
Why do I suddenly feel now,
You're turning the corner again. Why don't you persuade me to give up? "
"You're looking for a fight, aren't you?" Tian Lao blew his beard and glared. "Everything I said now is about the so-called eight wonders! If you want to hear the secret, shut your mouth to me!
Otherwise!
Do you believe I called your martial uncle to smoke you? "
"......." Liu Xiaojiang immediately closed his mouth and nodded with a clever face.
See this,
Tian Lao couldn't breathe out even if he was angry. He could only shake his head helplessly and said, "I know you don't want to practice Taoism. You go up the mountain only to alleviate your mood problems, so listen to these. There's no need to continue to study them,
After all,
I also want to better explain to you the origin of the eight wonders. "
Well,
The old man's eyes again appeared complex and tangled, as if recalling the past many years ago, and said in a nostalgic and heavy tone:
"Xiaojiang, xiaoyuzi, they guessed well. As a teacher, they did see Chu Lan's grandfather when they went down the mountain. Finally, they even talked to his grandfather
I learned something I shouldn't have known. "
"Those so-called eight strange skills are the evil consequences of their wanton understanding of the Tao left by their ancestors, which will eventually be born!"
When Liu Xiaojiang heard such words that were enough to subvert the world's cognition, he immediately didn't care whether he should take into account Tian Lao's emotion or not, and his face showed a great shock.
"Ha?... Shifu? Didn't you just say that people who have access to the Tao, such as grandparents, seem to be unable to teach their own Tao to others because of some restriction from the heaven?
Now this is...... "
"As a teacher, the ancestors who only speak the Tao seem to be subject to the Tao of heaven and may not be able to bear the consequences of preaching. When did they say that they can't teach the Tao to others?"
"What's more, it's just my guess. I can't really determine what happened to my ancestors... Moreover, even if I took ten thousand steps back, I really guessed right. Was it among those ancestors who got the Tao,
Then there will be no one who ignores the prohibition of heaven? "
Tian Lao's expression was very complex and said, "less, but it doesn't mean No. like xiaoyuzi just now, there are always people who are willing to give up their own safety for something, regardless of whether the thing is correct or not, and whether it will cause worse consequences."
"We ordinary people don't understand the ideas of the people who get the Tao. Maybe in the eyes of the ancestor, everything he did was right, but what he left met a group of people who are not afraid of heaven and earth at the wrong time,
It led to the extreme of the whole thing. "
So far,
The old man looked up to his disciple who did not know how to give up. Because he did not want to see more danger when he investigated eight wonders in the future, he could only continue to say:
"Xiao Jiang, the guesses he said before as a teacher are actually based on what Huaiyi, the big ear thief, said. He speculated when he was bored. He can't be said to be absolutely right or absolutely wrong,
How exactly,
Your martial uncle's squint should be clearer than me. "
"Because according to Huaiyi..."
"The Tianshi degree that we are passing down from generation to generation in Tianshi mansion is, to some extent, the same as what they understood. It is the same information that the ancestors forced to leave by some means while worrying about the way of heaven."
