Chapter 197: The suffering and emptiness are aware of the strange color, and return to the end of the world forever (Part 1)
For a master like Zeren, it doesn’t matter what dirty work is. He can get rid of all the dirty work with his sleeves. He can take it away with a truck and cast a spell. As for deducting wages and bonuses, it’s more like a joke. But it’s depressing Rong Cheng to play like this in front of everyone. Thanks to Zeren’s first-class temperament and never cared about Rong Cheng. But he must also wonder in his heart that as a model among the disciples of Zhengyi, he is respected by all the cultivators in the world wherever he goes. Why can’t Rong Cheng, who has no grievances and no grudges, be with him? Could it be that Rong Cheng, the master of the Shiye, intentionally arranged it? Finally one day, he found an opportunity and Zeren asked me this question.
It was two o'clock one afternoon. On weekends, I happened to come to Zhiweilou to see the situation. It was not the time for guests to visit. Most people went out to stroll. Only Zeren was left by Rong Cheng in the lobby to wipe the floor tiles. I saw it when I saw it and refused to laugh. He greeted him, "Zeren, after you wipe the floor, you come to Junziju, let's have a cup of tea together."
About a quarter of an hour later, Zeren pushed the door and entered Junziju to greet me: "Shi Alliance Leader, what are the instructions?"
"Don't be so polite all day long. Sit down, you'll have the tea for you... Zeren, today I want to ask you, what do you think of Rong Cheng?"
Zeren smiled slightly and said, "He is a good girl, and his disciples are naturally different from others."
I also laughed: "Didn't you find that she is different to you? She doesn't seem to be very polite to you, so don't you have any ideas?"
Zeren: "She has no real malice towards me, but on the contrary, she just thinks of me more when encountering things. What do I have to mind? Junior Sister Rong Cheng restrains all the fellow practitioners in Zhiwei Building for the leader of the Shi Alliance. I am here on behalf of the first party, so I should set an example. I am afraid that these are the instructions of you, Master, right?"
I quickly waved my hand: "It has nothing to do with me, it's her who wants to find you. I ask you, what do you think of my disciple Rong Cheng?"
Zeren replied thinking, "She is not kind to me, I can't figure out when and where she blamed her. It's strange that the first thing I saw was Junior Sister Rong Cheng, I felt a sense of intimacy."
"You are so good! She makes trouble for you every day and you still think she is kind to you? What did you say when you first met her?"
Zeren lowered his head with a little embarrassed and said, "I found an opportunity to ask her privately, "Where is a disciple named Baihe in Meihua Mountain. What is Lily's recent situation?"
"How did she answer?"
Zeren: "She said there was a senior brother named Lily, whose face was destroyed, and he avoided entering the temple to practice and did not want to see the people in the world."
"What did you say?"
Zeren: "At that time, I felt sad and knew that I was sad. I couldn't speak for a long time and didn't say anything."
I looked at Zeren and suddenly wanted to make a joke with him, and said tentatively: "Lily is already disheartened today, and the ten-year agreement may become empty words... Since you have a good impression of Rong Cheng, why don't you become a matchmaker in Hexi? How about you become a Taoist couple? I think Zhengyi will only agree and not object."
Zeren changed his color solemnly: "No, I must keep the ten-year promise."
"Okay, then that's it - I'll mention this matter later. If Lily doesn't have a chance with you, I'll propose marriage for Rong Cheng. You don't have to agree now, just nod and agree to me to do this. To be honest, I think Rong Cheng likes you, and you don't understand the woman's thoughts, and she will deliberately tease you."
Zeren: "Don't do this. Although I have a good impression of Rong Cheng, it is completely different. Even if the lily is indifferent, Zeren has no other thoughts."
"Forget it, men are looking at men after all. Today I will tell you a secret. Don't disclose it to others, and don't point it out in front of Rong Cheng. - In fact, Rong Cheng is Lily!"
Zeren knocked over the teacup and wet his clothes, but asked anxiously: "Is what the uncle said true?"
"Of course it's true. If you look carefully at Rong Cheng, you will understand!"
Zeren: "So that's the case, I've long been a little confused. Junior Sister Rong Cheng's angry look, her expression and tone are so similar to her! - Why did the uncle tell me this?"
"There is no other reason. I don't like to see you being tortured. Lily is indeed a little angry, but why should the love in the world be so painful?... But, just wait for the ten-year agreement. There is no need to break it down before the appointment is over. Only you and I know this!"
Zeren stood up and bowed to the ground: "Thank you, uncle, Zeren understands!"
"No need to thank you! Sit down, do you have anything else?"
Zeren: "I do have something to discuss with the leader."
"Why did you suddenly call me the leader again? It seems to be a serious matter, just tell me."
Zeren: "It is a rare opportunity for fellow practitioners in the world to gather here, and they have many exchanges and discussions on weekdays. But if there is nothing to do over time, I may feel tired and lazy, which will waste such a good opportunity. I discussed with the head of Haitian Gu in private. It would be better to follow the Zhengyi Sanshan Exercise Conference and regularly gather people to invite those with advanced cultivation in various sects to go on stage to preach. As long as the insights and experiences that cannot be helped by the sect can be communicated and confirmed, the location will be set at the Xiaoyao Sect's temple. What do the leader thinks?"
"Very very good! It was me who neglected it. Fortunately, you thought about it. It seems that Senior Shouzheng valued you so much and did not pick the wrong person. You do have the potential of a leader. That's it. I will go to Master Ye Ming to discuss this matter tomorrow..."
Zeren went out first. After a while, I did something else and said hello to him before leaving. When I went downstairs, I heard Rong Cheng talking to Zeren with a stern face: "Zeren, what's wrong with you today? Why do you always look at me?"
Zeren: "I'm sorry, Zeren is rude."
Rong Cheng: "It's impolite to look at girls like this. I will forgive you this time. Pay attention next time!... The kitchen range hood is dirty, so you can clean it up."
Zeren: "I understand, I'll go now." He turned around and went with a smile. Rong Cheng stood behind him for some reason.
...
The leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, Ye Ming, agreed with the gathering of people to preach the Dharma, and even gave it a very nice name - the Dongkunlun Dharma Assembly. From then on, the Dongkunlun Dharma Assembly has certain rules. It is held at the Xiaoyao Sect temple on the first and fifteenth nights of the month, and a master will be promoted to preach the Dharma, and everyone will confirm their experiences.
Yu Cangwu, who preached the most on stage, was humble and thought that he had insufficient cultivation, but he often came on stage with the recommendation of everyone. In addition, the person who preached the Dharma was Ye Ming, the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, and Wuwei, had also spoken several times, and of course I couldn't help it. Fei Yan was not willing to participate in such a thing, but he occasionally made a guest appearance at the invitation of me. However, it is difficult to say whether everyone can understand what she said, and she stated that she would only tell women, and that men would listen casually.
The East Kunlun Dharma Assembly has spread throughout the various sects of practice from the beginning and has quickly become famous all over the world in a short period of time. The various sects of practice, and the influence has expanded to the entire East Kunlun. The preachers are no longer limited to us. He Xi Zhenren passed by Feishui and once went on stage to preach, while the Jiuli Sanren was pushed to the stage by everyone to watch the excitement. Among the various sects of Jianghu, those with profound cultivation and unique insights can volunteer to come on stage, as long as they are not afraid of being laughed at. However, since the beginning of the Dharma Assembly, no one has volunteered to come on stage, and those who preach on stage have been recommended by everyone.
Until one day, a scattered man from Changbai Mountain volunteered to appear on stage. This man's surname is Wang, and he called himself the Taoist Wang Xiao. He practiced alone in Changbai Mountain for 60 years without setting foot in the world. As soon as he came out of the mountain this time, he heard about the name of the East Kunlun Dharma Assembly and came here specially. It is said that after listening to several events, he had a lot of insights and couldn't help but want to go on stage to show his ugliness to his fellow practitioners. Unexpectedly, there were people who asked to come on stage, and everyone couldn't say anything, so he asked him to talk about it.
That night, Master Wang Xiao talked about the Hunyuan Golden Pill. Since there were many younger disciples, he focused on explaining the insights of the level of body and spirit refining. The method that Master Wang Xiao talked about was quite magical, which showed that he had a superb level, and he also gave a wide range of quotes and detailed deciphering various points. The rules of the Dharma Assembly were to directly talk about the insights of practice without passing on the middle Taoist Dharma itself. Master Wang Xiao had already said that at this level, he was extremely profound. No matter how high or low the cultivation level, everyone present nodded repeatedly.
However, I was not present in this rare lecture because I happened to go to the Plum Blossom Holy Land that day. Rong Cheng sent me a message from Ziying between the Plum Blossom Holy Land and Zhiwei Tower, and asked me to go there. I immediately set off, which happened to be the fifteenth day of the sixth lunar month in 1994.
There was only Ziying in the Plum Blossom Holy Realm. I opened the Cave Heaven Portal and walked directly into this valley. When I entered the manor and turned to the right, I saw Ziying stroking a flower seedling in the medicine garden with my hands. I asked with a smile, "What are you looking at? Why are you so trance? Someone didn't even notice it even after entering Cave Heaven?"
Ziying: "Ono, you came in silently? I was shocked!... Look, this burura flower will soon grow into fruition soon. I will collect the 280th medicinal herbs in the Nine-Turn Purple Golden Pill."
I walked over and took one of her hands: "What a wonderful name, what a beautiful flower, you have a bit of your charm... You asked Rong Cheng to call me, what's wrong?"
Ziying: "Look back and look at the gate of the yard."
I turned around and looked at where I came from, but a flower in front of me was a shadow of orange rushing into my arms like flying clouds. Before I could react, the visitor hugged me tightly, her head buried in my chest. I couldn't see her face, but only a head of golden curly hair. This is a girl in an orange dress. I don't have to look at her. I used to be very familiar with the quiet aura that her body emits. She is A Xiu.
As soon as A Xiu appeared, she rushed into my arms without saying a word, her shoulders shaking. She cried, buried her face in front of my chest and kept crying. Her hands were tightly held, and her nails were almost pinching into my clothes. My nose was sore, and my eyes couldn't help but turn red. I reached out to hug her, and gently patted her on the back with the other hand: "Don't be sad, everything is fine when I come back. We are sorry for you, which has caused you to suffer too much grievances and suffering."
A Xiu just cried, and she couldn't stop her tears for a long time. The clothes on my chest were wet. I turned around and wanted Ziying to come and persuade her, but found that Ziying had left the yard at some point. After a long time, A Xiu seemed to be tired of crying. She arched her chest and wiped her tears with my clothes. Then she raised her tears: "Brother Shiye, A Xiu is not sad, she is so happy. She finally saw her brother again. I miss you every day in the Shenmu Forest!"
"Look at you, you're so happy!... You've suffered a lot over the past period of time, right?"
A Xiu: "You have also been in the Qingming Mirror. You know that feeling is not a pain. But you feel very uncomfortable in the past year in the Shenmu Forest."
"All the bitterness will come after all, everything will be better. Why did you go directly to the Plum Blossom Holy Realm?"
A Xiu: "Liu Yiyi asked me to come to Sister Ziying first, and said Sister Ziying was waiting for me in the Plum Blossom Holy Realm, so that you can come here and give me a surprise."
"I'm really surprised and happy!... By the way, I know your name when you were a child. You don't scream, right?"
After saying this, Ah Xiu suddenly left my arms, took two steps back and knelt on one knee, "Ho, pay homage to the young master, it turns out that the young master knows everything."
I quickly stepped forward and pulled her up: "Don't call her young master, I am your brother Shiye. You are no longer huhu or huhuhu, it's my Ah Xiu, do you understand?"
A Xiu: "I understand. You are the leader of the Mei clan and no longer the young master. I am A Xiu, so I will call Shi Zhixiu or Mei Zhixiu in the future."
"You don't understand this, and you're still a little confused. You can just call me whatever you want. Anyway, I'll call you A Xiu. Otherwise, I'll ask you to hug me, come and let me hug me again."
Ah Xiu snuggled into my arms again, and I stroked her golden curly hair and said, "You are exactly the same as before, but your hair color is a little different."
A Xiu: "Don't your brother like this?"
"There is nothing I don't like? I like the way I used to be now... By the way, since you have come to the Plum Blossom Holy Realm, you must have known the relationship between Meihua Mountain and our Mei family in Wucheng. My brother has an idea, and he wants to combine the three families into one sect, and his name is Sanmeng Sect. In the future, you will be the guardian of Sanmeng Sect, so you are not allowed to cry anymore and let the younger disciples laugh at me. Do you know what a guardian is?"
