Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Submit the mental ape."

Although Yuan Huajing and I are far from friends, we can still chat even if we are not friends.

When Chen Pingan came down the mountain and returned to the temple at the foot of the mountain, it was already dark. He studied ink at his residence, spread out the paper, and wrote down a sentence.

Stay away from everything that upsets your dreams.

The top of Pomo Peak.

Lu Chen smiled and said: "If you don't deliberately talk about mystery, seeing is believing, and hearing is false. Generally speaking, it is correct."

Shaking his wrist, Lu Chen said: "Human relationships are like the palm of a hand, and the world is like a wheel."

As he spoke, Lu Chen flicked his finger, and a wisp of breeze hit the forehead of a Taoist Heavenly Lord.

After that, Cao Rong seemed to have "opened his eyes". His eyes followed his master Lu Chen's vision of the past, and he clearly saw an old picture of the long river of time.

The scenery is familiar to me.

There was no reason why Cao Rong didn't want to see the scenery.

There's no use closing your eyes anyway.

Just talking about what you see in your dreams, is it just relying on your eyes?

Cao Rong sat cross-legged, with his palms facing up and stacked on his abdomen, as if he was observing Taoism.

The young Taoist priest bent down and pushed a two-wheeled wooden cart. There was a sound of rolling wheels on the bumpy dirt road, and he entered a dark alley.

The Taoist priest chanted "Buddha bless, Bodhisattva appears" all the way.

Stopping outside the door of a courtyard, the Taoist priest knocked on the door and shouted. After a while, a dark and thin boy in straw sandals finally opened the door.

Afterwards, there was some small talk.

The young man mentioned that he has a good memory.

According to Chen Ping'an's subsequent explanation at that time, it was easier for him to remember things when he saw them than when he listened to others talking.

At this time, Lu Chen seemed to be annotating or exegesis of some ancient text, commenting with a smile: "You should pay attention here, 'gentle'. The young man used this word very cleverly."

As for how good the memory is, the Taoist priest asked the young man to make an analogy.

The young man said that in his hometown, when making porcelain, there is a drawing process, and there is a craft called Tiao-dao.

The threshold for this craft is not low. There are many dragon kilns in the town, and Master Yao is the best.

But when he first became a kiln worker's apprentice, he only read it once and remembered all the details.

When Cao Rong saw this and Lu Chen "heard" this, he continued: "Just like Bai Yujing's Taoist lineage, there are many inheritances of thunder methods. Almost all of them are involved in the five cities and twelve floors, but it is recognized that the thunder method has the highest attainments.

Pang Ding, who was holding the unique skill of pressing the bottom of the box with one hand, and then a Taoist boy who had not yet been taught the pot, took a few glances from a distance and said that he had seen everything clearly and had mastered all the 'shapes'. Cao Rong, what do you think?

What are the Taoist qualifications of this Taoist boy?

Cao Rong sincerely praised: "Excellent, shockingly good, enough to be called outstanding."

The lord of Lingbao City, Pang Ding, whose Taoist name is "Humous Heart", is an old Taoist priest who is known as the best thunder magician in the Qingming world.

Lu Chen said: "This technique, to put it a bit further, can be roughly understood as a kind of cutting. It is now one of Chen Pingan's own sword skills."

"But at that time, this was called being powerless. As Chen Ping'an himself said, if you see every detail of Master Yao so clearly, you can also see every mistake of your own. The more mistakes you make, the more anxious you will be.

The more mistakes you make.”

In the same village, there are two paupers with the same money. One is a poor man who cannot read a single word, and the other is a scholar who has read a few books. Their perception of pain, depth, width, length, are all different.

the same.

It's about the perspective.

Knowing a lot of whys but not being able to solve the problem may just be the source of the pain.

This is actually the crux of the problem for many readers.

What you know in your heart is one path, and what you walk on is another path.

Since knowledge and action are not the same, tracing back to the source, it is actually the body and mind that are not the same. The body is here and the mind is there.

Therefore, the more delicate the mind, the more heartbreaking pain there will be.

Wrong words said, wrong things done, and the feeling of regret form a long line on the elusive road beside them, making people unable to look back and not daring to look back.

Lu Chen smiled and said: "Back then, I was pushing the car and looking for a new home so that I could take over the most hot potato girl in the world. In fact, Chen Ping'an didn't have to open the door and just pretended not to hear it. But he heard the knock on the door.

, I recognized Pindao’s voice and confirmed his identity. It was the Taoist priest who set up a fortune-telling stall on the roadside, and he still opened the door. "

"At that time, Chen Ping'an said 'but', and then there was nothing more. He had never read a book, he had little ink in his stomach, and he had many thoughts in his mind. He couldn't say a lot of things in his heart, but if he did say them out, he might not be able to express what he meant.

, it’s better not to say anything.”

Cao Rong smiled and said, "The most difficult thing in life is just talking."

"So I continued, 'but' my hands and feet could never keep up with my thoughts."

When he heard Lu Chen's words, the straw-shoe boy's eyes lit up.

But what Cao Rong saw in his eyes, or in other words, the poor boy in his master's eyes at that moment, his whole temperament suddenly changed.

Just like a meticulous white drawing that was originally only in black and white, it instantly turned into a colorful freehand painting.

Speaking of this, Lu Chen smiled all over his face, "Chen Ping'an is like meeting a confidant."

Then Lu Chen used another metaphor, "It's more like a thirsty person with a dry heart who meets a passerby holding a water ladle."

In this picture of time, the young man said two more sentences. I couldn’t understand them, but I remembered most of them. In fact, I remembered all the details after reading them once.

Lu Chen said: "The word 'most' was used in the first part, which is a general term. When I explained Ning Yao's physical condition, he believed it, so I used 'all' in the second part."

"You have to know that Chen Pingan is a very cautious person and a person who likes to deny himself."

"Then when he said 'all', he must be extremely sure and confident that it is absolutely true."

"This was Chen Pingan's character at that time. Because he doubted the world, he found a few life-saving straws and held on to them. "

Cao Rong said, "This seems to be different from many people. It is precisely because of suspicion that they are more distrustful and deny it."

"Deny yourself and affirm others. It's like slapping yourself in the face."

Lu Chen nodded and smiled: "How many people in the world like to slap themselves and ask for trouble when they are full?"

"In addition, you also missed a detail. The connection between Chen Pingan's two sentences is very interesting. There is an unconscious and natural... bridge, which can be interpreted as a kind of equivalence.

Exchange. It comes from Chen Ping'an's intuition. Taoist priests in the world are almost all doctors. They will understand how important a person's 'awareness' or 'body sense' is. In the final analysis, awareness and body sense are what a person who practices Taoism has to do with his or her own body.

Small world, a keen perception of the big world outside oneself.”

Lu Chen lamented: "Based on this alone, Chen Ping'an deserves the reputation of a good floor material."

The so-called floor materials are the so-called earth immortal qualifications in ancient times.

Cao Rong nodded.

Lu Chen said calmly: "It seems that we all have the tendency to destroy all good things."

Cao Rong asked: "In the Confucian dispute between the Three and Four Confucians, did Master favor the Literary Sage?"

Lu Chen laughed it off.

As time went by, the Taoist priest seemed to say casually, maybe the master had no intention of bringing Chen Ping'an in.

Cao Rong raised his head, looking strange.

Lu Chen nodded and smiled: "Of course he did it on purpose, with ulterior motives and murderous intent."

The young man said that he could not compare with ordinary apprentices, let alone Liu Xianyang, so it was not surprising.

Cao Rong said: "Dilute the energy."

Lu Chen laughed at himself: "I was quietly hinting to him that he might as well affirm himself by denying others, but he used denying himself to affirm others."

"I comforted him with the word 'stable mind', which is rare. Don't underestimate yourself."

Lu Chen said with a smile: "In the end, Chen Ping'an probably started chatting and talked too much. He even gave me an analogy, saying that two people stood in deep water and shallow water and both caught fish. Then he asked me whether the two of them were

It's not different. I almost blurted out at that time and asked him, if two people catch fish while standing and bending over, or go deep into the water, and end up catching the same fish, is it the same or different?

"

Cao Rong pondered for a moment and said doubtfully: "Master, I have a question."

Lu Chen guessed what he was thinking and said with a smile: "I don't understand at all why Chen Ping'an doesn't feel even the slightest bit jealous when he is with his friend Liu Xianyang?"

Cao Rong nodded.

Lu Chen held his chin with one hand and was silent for a moment, "Buddhists have a saying of putting a bed on a bed, which is of course a derogatory meaning. If you ask where to find the Buddha? Don't put the head on the head."

"So what if you want to build a tall building from the ground? What if you want to reach a higher level with a clairvoyance? How about using one state of mind to kill another state of mind?"

"Be careful." As a verb, be careful, be careful, and reach the ultimate state. Isn't it the Taoist mind?"

"It's another example of building a temple in Beijing. There are piles of corpses and bones piled up into a mountain. There is only one person alive at the top, and only one of you stands there. But this person did not kill people, but committed suicide. He specializes in killing countless thieves in his heart."

Cao Rong asked cautiously: "Why does Master care so much about Chen Ping'an?"
