Origin Chapter 803: Enlightenment
Wu Zhongyuan settled in a clean abandoned house in Yinma River. Since Black Widow and others had planned to move south, everything that could be moved in the city was removed, and there was nothing left in the room. Anything, and whether there are living utensils has no substantial impact on Wu Zhongyuan, because he no longer needs to eat and live.
Just like mortals, immortals will also have selfish thoughts, not to mention that the Taiyuan cultivation base at this time is only about equal to the golden immortals of later generations, and there is still a big difference from the real golden immortals, especially the use of medicinal pills. Although the time required for cultivation has been shortened, the weight of step-by-step promotion has also been lost.
Reiki can do a lot of things, but he can't control his thoughts. There are still distracting thoughts. The distracting thoughts mainly come from worries. The enemy's conspiracy, worry about changes in the Sifang camp, worry about the shortage of rice and grain reserves, in short, all kinds of worries.
The first day of retreat was spent in apprehension. He always felt that someone would use his aura token to summon him back at any time, but this was just his worry, and it didn't actually happen.
The next day, I still can't enter the state. The transformation of Nascent Soul is different from Qi training. There is no trace of the transformation of Nascent Soul, and I can't follow it. It all depends on my own guessing, and guessing without feeling is almost like trying to find a fish.
On the third day, I was still in no state. I always wanted to go back and take a look, or teleport to Xinyue Island to pick fruit to eat, but I finally held back. Doing whatever I want is a low-level sense satisfaction, and a high-level self. Certainly comes from self-discipline and restraint.
On the fourth day, there is still no state, and there are still many distractions. Wu Zhongyuan is not very anxious, because he knows the truth that haste is not enough, and he also knows that the transformation of the soul is different from the improvement of spiritual energy. epiphanies, rather than incremental improvements.
I slept for a day on the fifth day, any change requires a process of adaptation, and calming down is no exception. Only at this moment did he realize that he was so sleep-deprived. After removing his spiritual energy, he could sleep more than a dozen times. hours, and can go back to sleep after waking up.
On the sixth day, he found that he began to be impatient. He had not made progress and wasted time in vain. It had been five or six days. If he hadn't stayed in Yinmahe, he could have done a lot in these five or six days.
At the same time when he found that he was impatient, Wu Zhongyuan suddenly understood a truth, that is, a person's life trajectory is often not controlled by himself, but by the things he cares about and the people he cares about. Yes, he is completely passive in the process.
On the seventh day, Wu Zhongyuan stared at the earth wall in a daze. The room he was in was an adobe house. It was made of mud mixed with straw and built after drying. The adobe has been worn out due to the many years of living. It was very serious. He couldn't tell why he was staring at the earth wall in a daze. Maybe it was to truly experience the world. He was really busy for a while before, and many things happened every day, and the tricky things happened one after another. He dealt with it non-stop, and didn't even have time to take a good look at the world he was in.
On the eighth day, I stopped staring at the earth wall, and started to stare at a broken pottery urn in the corner, first staring, then touching, with my fingers, I really felt the body of the pottery urn with dirt particles, the feeling was not sharp The stubble, a scorpion came to the room at night, he stared at the scorpion again, the weather was very cold at this time, the scorpion had not stored enough energy for hibernation, and was hurrying to hunt and eat.
Wu Zhongyuan didn't do anything else all night. He focused on the scorpion. He followed wherever the scorpion climbed. Due to the low temperature, the scorpion searched all night and couldn't find any prey. Before the sun rose, the scorpion was hungry. Crawled back to his cave in the crevice of the wall.
Like Scorpion, Wu Zhongyuan got nothing, but he was very relieved because he found that he was letting go of his worries and slowly calming down.
The scorpion has been lying still during the day, and then crawled out to feed at night. Wu Zhongyuan followed and observed. In the second half of the night, the scorpion found a small gecko, but after a round of entanglement, it did not find a chance to sting with a poisonous needle. The gecko left half of its tail and ran away in a panic.
This half of the tail becomes the food for the scorpion. The scorpion has no expression, but when the scorpion crawled to the gecko's tail, he seemed to see a man who was dying of thirst suddenly found a life-saving water source.
While the scorpion devoured the gecko's tail, Wu Zhongyuan went to observe the little gecko with its broken tail. The little gecko lost its tail and hid in the gap in the ceiling after being frightened. The little gecko was also very weak and lost. After the tail, the belly has been bloating rapidly, and it can be seen that it is very nervous and scared.
The baby gecko didn't come out all night, and the scorpion continued to search for food after eating the gecko's tail, but ultimately found nothing else to eat.
The scorpion and the gecko are resting. Wu Zhongyuan is not resting. All follow the Dao of Heaven and the law of yin and yang. What he observes is not these two small animals, but the law of yin and yang.
Everything follows the law of yin and yang, whether it is dead or living, the higher the creatures, the more difficult it is to discover the law of yin and yang through what they do, because the higher the creatures, the more complex the behaviors, but the lower creatures do not So many complex actions that whatever they do is necessary and necessary, without any superfluous actions that might mislead the observer.
Scorpions and little geckos only do the same thing every day, that is, foraging. The colder and colder weather forces them to forage more and more eagerly, but the food is getting less and less. Food consumes their little physical strength. Scorpions are better. The little gecko lost its tail before and needs more food supplements. Without food supplements, the little gecko became weaker and weaker and eventually died. Dropped and died on the way to foraging.
A life disappears so silently, no one knows what it has experienced, no one knows how much effort it has put in to live, and no one even knows it ever existed.
Wu Zhongyuan witnessed the whole process and watched with his own eyes the little gecko stopped breathing, his eyes lost his vigour, and then the suction feet on his feet loosened and fell off the wall.
He could have rescued this little gecko, but he didn't. Similar things happen countless times at any time and anywhere. There is a beginning and an end, and they are doomed at the moment of birth. death, death itself is a part of life.
After a cold wind, snowflakes floated in the sky, the scorpion stopped foraging, hid in its nest and entered hibernation, but although it entered hibernation, it did not save enough energy and fat to survive the winter. He died of starvation in three days.
Wu Zhongyuan was slightly saddened by the death of the two small animals. He was not a sentimental person, but he had carefully observed the two small animals before they died, and had seen and witnessed them in order to survive. hard work to go down.
What is the meaning of life? Is the meaning of life just the law of yin and yang?
Comprehension requires state of mind, and state of mind is not controlled by people's subjective consciousness. After observing scorpions and geckos for several days, after seeing scorpions and geckos lose their lives, Wu Zhongyuan's heart became calm. Come down, and this is the subtle and ethereal state of mind he needs for enlightenment.
Right now, there are two ways for him to transform into Nascent Soul. One is to have a targeted and targeted tempering process. Later generations describe Jinxian as three flowers gathering at the top, with five qi rising to the prime. In fact, the correct order should be five qi. In the Yuan Dynasty, three flowers gathered on the top. The five qi are the mind, the liver, the spleen, the lungs, and the kidney. The so-called Chaoyuan is integrated with the human flower that refines and transforms into qi, the ground flower that refines qi and transforms into spirit, and the smallpox that refines spirit and is still empty. Gathering the top refers to access to the entrance, the five qi and three flowers gather at the entrance, and return to the void, the golden flower will be transformed into a golden flower, and the golden flower is the Yuan Ying.
The second method is to aimlessly, to carry out extensive comprehension, and to directly deduce the laws of heaven and earth and the laws of yin and yang through the scriptures of heaven and earth. Also unknown.
Without too many entanglements, I just pondered Wu Zhongyuan before making a decision, choosing the first method, with a definite purpose, specializing in Yuan Ying.
And the reason why he made this choice is also very simple, that is, it is the beginning of November, it will not take long for the seal to disappear, and the rest of the time does not allow him to be greedy...
