Stars are scattered, a few stars are in the night sky, twinkling, it seems to be looking at earth, Su Ming in the village, sitting in the yard, chopping firewood, his look has always been calm, the firewood cut off is very It is neatly placed next to it, which is obviously different from the clutter of the old man cutting wood.

The old man ’s firewood is of different sizes and different thicknesses. After cutting, the surrounding wood is full of wood chips, and here in Su Ming, after all the firewood is cut, there is almost no difference.

Even the sound of cutting wood is very regular. This is different from the old man. Until midnight, the house door behind Su Ming creaked, and the old man wore a small Jacket, came out with his hands on his back, stood next to Su Ming, took a look at the firewood cut by Su Ming by moonlight, and frowned.

"It's wrong for you to cut wood like this."

Su Ming put down the axe and raise the head looked at the old man.

"Where is wrong?" This is the first time that Su Ming is in this to open mouth.

"Nothing is right. You are not chopping wood. You are chopping people. By the way, you old man who is chopping firewood ca n’t sleep. Come and come. I will teach you how to cut wood." Lao Yiyi The tone of the deputy lesson stepped forward to touch Su Ming and motioned for Su Ming to get up.

After Su Ming got up, the old man sat on the wooden pier, picked up the axe, took out the firewood, slammed it, stuck the axe on the firewood, and knocked on the firewood several times in a row, then it clicked. After splitting the firewood into two halves of different sizes and dropping them randomly on both sides, the old man raise the head glanced at Su Ming.

"Did you understand?"

"No." Su Ming shook his head.

"Your little doll has a poor perception, see clearly, my old man will show you again." The old man said, picking up a piece of firewood again, and when he lifted the axe, the firewood was split again with a bang Two halves.

"Did you understand this time?" The old man looked at Su Ming. Looking forward.

"No." Su Ming frowned and shook his head.

"You, you ... nothing, I'll show you again." The old man spit in his hands and picked up the wood and split again.

"Understood?"

"No."

"Understood this time?"

"It's almost ..."

In this way, time passed slowly, and more than an hour later, the old man kept chopping firewood, Su Ming kept shaking his head until the last piece of firewood in the yard. The old man rolled his eyes.

"You dear, are you old-hearted old man!" The old man threw an axe in his hand and looked angrily at Su Ming, while rubbing his wrist, this was a long-time chopping wood. It seemed to make this old man look tired.

"I understand this time, thank you seniors for your guidance." Su Ming looked calm, revealing a thoughtful look, looked at the old man, nodded solemnly, and bowed his fist deeply.

"Understood? What do you understand." The old man glared and said angrily.

"The firewood I cut. Every section is very tidy and regular, but such neatness and regularity are deliberate. Even if I did n’t have the consciousness to do so, it naturally caused this. Results.

The predecessor's cutting wood, every section is natural, whether it is broken lines or size. I can't find the same two, just like life ... there are no two people. It is exactly the same, at most approximate.

Predecessors here are not chopping wood, but chopping off life. "Su Ming's gentle to open mouth, the words echoed in the middle of the night. After hearing this, the old man was silent for a long time, slowly raised his head, and gave Su Ming a deep look.

"Everyone can cut firewood here. You can have such a long discussion here. The old man tells you that I cut firewood like this because it is the only way to burn fire, okay, okay?

Chopping wood for you, it ’s not easy to burn! ! "The old man stood up angrily, glaring at Su Ming.

"The juniors alone do not know, what is the life of their predecessors and their identity, what is their own life, and why they should be chopped, and ... although I do n’t know how many years I have chopped, but why ... Never cut! "Su Ming looked at the old man, did not care about his previous words, but calm to open mouth.

"What a mess, sleep and sleep, that kid, you will sleep outside in the future, not allowed to sleep in the house!" The old man snorted and turned to think about the house.

"Also, it is not the life that the seniors want to cut, but the heart knot formed in that period of life. Should you cut your own heart knot, can you let Great Dao appear under your feet ...

This heart knot, the predecessor has never been cut off, could it be that said that because the heart knot is even a senior, he is hesitating, I do not know whether it should be cut or not? "When Su Ming touched to open mouth lightly, the old man didn't look back. He had reached the door of the house and was about to lift his foot into it. Su Ming suddenly appeared a little more clear comprehension in his expression.

"could it be that said ... The reason why the seniors hesitated to cut or not should be because the seniors hesitated about the truth of this knot? Fearing that he would cut the wrong one, so he is undecided, so ... In this cut wood, let yourself Quiet, instead of asking yourself, it ’s better to ask Heavenly Dao! "The moment Su Ming came out, the old man ’s feet within the threshold of the entrance were paused. The whole person was one foot outside, one foot inside, and slowly turned his head. , Looking at Su Ming, at this moment his expression showed a very unusual look.

It seems to be dignified, with a slight contraction of both eyes. When looking at Su Ming, even Su Ming is clearly aware here that this old man seems to be different at this moment.

But the specifics are different, but he is not clear.

"You ..." When the old man said to open mouth lightly, he gave a slight pause.

"Can't snore at night?" At the moment when this sentence came out, even Su Ming was stunned.

"To snore, the old man will take you away." The old man finished, turned and walked into the house.

Su Ming stood there for a moment, with a smile on his face.

"Take Gutai's cultivation as a person who can make him so respectful, and the answer is already telling me, and among the three 9-layer Taoist gods, one is the Shura Dao of Net Gate and the second is the Emperor The emperor of the capital, the third ... but few people know its Sect and the track number ... "Su Ming raise the head looked at the lamp that the house was extinguished at the moment, slowly sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.

When the morning came, when Su Ming opened his eyes, his both eyes suddenly shrank, and he saw the courtyard. The firewood that was cut off last night, as if the time had been reversed, was gathered together again.

"Stupidly doing something, not going to cut the wood!" It seemed that there was still some fiery sound. As the door of the house was pushed open, the old man changed a set of jackets and walked out with a cigarette gun .

Su Ming groaned a little, did not speak, and walked to that wooden puddle. He picked up the axe, looked at the firewood, closed his eyes, and when he opened both eyes, there was no fierce monk in his eyes. His body can no longer see the monk's breath, as if the whole person at this moment is no longer a monk, but a mortal youth.

Until this time, he randomly dropped an axe, and the wood was suddenly in two halves, not neat. But different sizes.

Looking at the two halves of firewood, Su Ming seemed to be touched indistinctly, as if not seeing firewood, but as if creating a certain sense of life. It seems ... There were no such two pieces of wood that were cut in this world, but they appeared because of themselves.

This feels fast and dissipates invisible. It seems that when Su Ming wanted to explore carefully, he couldn't notice it. This is obviously different from the firewood cutting last night.

In deep thought, Su Ming picked up the second piece of firewood and continued to cut it, one piece, one piece ... Until a whole day passed, Su Ming seemed to forget the passing of his day, until dusk, when he looked at him in a trance, his eyes were already in sight. There was no whole piece of firewood.

"Huh? It ’s good to cut today, just let you rest. In this way, you put on a piece of clothing, take these firewood, go to the carpenter Zhang in the west of the village, get it for food, the old man I I did n’t eat for a day, and I was almost starving. "The old man sat on the threshold, smoking a cigarette bag, and patted a piece of clothing he had prepared for Su Ming, the old-fashioned to open mouth.

Su Ming came slowly and did n’t go to hold a fist like yesterday, but just picked up the clothes and changed them in the yard. This is a burlap cloth, and it still has There are some patches that look very simple.

After changing clothes, Su Ming bundled up the firewood in the yard and walked out of the yard on his back. Under the setting sun, his back was pulled long and fell into the yard, smoking a cigarette bag In the eyes of the old man, he watched the Su Ming go away, slowly put down his cigarette bag, and there was a trace of melancholy in his expression.

"Are you old, even this little doll can see my mind ... unceasingly, unable to sever ... the world ... in the end ... is it true or false?" The old man murmured softly, his face showing Bitter and confused.

Day after day, this kind of life, a rare calm, quickly passed three months. In the three months, Su Ming was always cutting wood, and each time there was a different clear comprehension, but always less Something ... The same, three months, also made Su Ming into this village, and accepted by this village.

Everyone in the village knows that the old man in the east of the village has adopted a adopted child. This adopted child has a nice name called Su Ming.

Until a rainy night six months later ...

sky thunder roared, lightning struck earth, Su Ming in the yard, lying in a wooden shed. He had been here for the past six months. Although the sound of rain was outside, it did n’t drip inside the shed. Su Ming lay here. It's quite comfortable.

On this rainy night, outside the village, at the moment when lightning flashed across the night sky, two figures emerged from the jungle, two fat and thin figures, wearing grey robes, standing there At that time, there seemed to be an invisible barrier around them, making the rain water inaccessible.

As if they were standing there, it was equivalent to standing on the top of the heavens and the earth, especially the cultivation practices of these two people, and even if a monk noticed, they would be terrified, this is ... Dao Zun!

"The elder elders deduced the heavens and earth, counted the ancient burials, and finally figured out where this person was. Unexpectedly, he actually hid in this mortal village!" to open mouth , Slightly sound sharp .

"Of course he has to hide, but now that he has been found, today he cannot hide." (To be continued)
